My alterations to feed 5 people and have a bit of juice for the rice:
I did the chicken as described, using 1.5 chicken breasts instead of thighs
I put 2 veg stock cubes and a 1cm piece of ginger i had over from the grating into the cooking water also.
For the veg mix:
I didn't have green onions so I used 1 leek and 1 onion (i'll use green onions next time or more onions!)
3 teaspoons of sugar instead of 1
5 teaspoons of soya sauce instead of 1
5 teaspoons sesame oil instead of 1
1.5 teaspoons ginger (ill use more next time)
1/2 cup oil (divided, added some later with the chicken)
3 cups of chicken broth into the veg mix
It was juicy enough after that, and very tasty!
The house smelled like a Chinese restaurant after that! hehe...

I get to rate this, I get to rate this! Words that came to mind are warm, comforting, and nurturing. I added whole garlic cloves to the poaching liquid (the chicken turns out so tender). I also appear to be out of pepper flakes, so substituted a couple of dashes of cayenne pepper. I added some of the resulting broth to the dish to help incorporate the sugar/soy bits with the chicken. The next time I make this, I will probably concentrate more of the chicken broth in place of the oil especially when I eat this with rice. Extra points for giving me a new recipe using chicken thighs! :)

I made this tonight for dinner. It was good! Everybody enjoyed it... was quite filling too :)
I had to however modify all the amounts quite a bit since we were eating it on rice and it had no juice, we like to have a bit of gravy on our food ;) It was the first time I used ginger and sesame oil and I even cooked chard for the first time as a side, came out quite well since I guessed how to cook it! ^_^
Check below for my Alterations for feeding 5 with this on rice...
Thanks for a great dinner Kukla!

Did you see the updates on the Alfredo group?
There is now a little history lesson on there and we finally figured out how this dish originated :) I must go try it next time I'm in Rome!

I am thrilled that you got to try new ingredients to make this! That, in my opinion, is the most flattering comment you could possibly give me :) !!
Chard would be wonderful as a side; you are a very creative cook!!
Thank you, Nemo! XO

I might try this with walla walla onions tomorrow, I will let you know how it turns out.

It was great we added a bit of tofu we wanted to use that we had rolled in some macadamia nuts and sauteed it along with the chicken instead of poaching. Threw some old sake into the pan to scrap off all the tasty bits and served over some tasty brown rice; yums. We also used toasted sesame oil.

This is my kind of recipe. Simple, clean, healthy and a great combo of flavors. Adding chard sounds like a great idea. I may have to test this one out soon. And thank you for your kind comments..:-) Jim

Hi Kukla, yes I did read your salt and oil warning. Thanks. I have come to ignore salt measurements in most recipes anyway. I usually just salt as I go and let my taste buds tell me when enough is enough..... ;-) 1/2 cup oil does sound like a lot, unless you were cutting it with a little white wine or some of the poaching liquid. 1/4 cup sounds a lot more reasonable. Hope you are having a good one. Jim
