Whole Chicken in Black Bean Sauce: Spilled Milk #143

Delicious, simple and elegant: This dish will hit your palate like a sledgehammer of deliciousness!

Social media can be an amazing thing. A few weeks ago I saw a video on YouTube of a Chinese chef browning a whole steamed and cooled chicken in a wok. I marveled at the simplicity of creating a crispy skinned whole “roast” chicken by reversing the process. And I instantly realized I hadn’t made my whole black bean chicken in a long time. If I hadn’t been killing time on the couch going down food video rabbit holes, I might not have recalled this superb dish and made it for dinner.
