Chueh Chao Chi Ting Stir Fried Chicken In A Birds Nest Recipe

	Hayleesgrandma / All my dishes 1 year, 9 months ago We used to have this in a restaurant in Houston. Have not been able to find the recipe until today. I can't wait to try and make it myself. You need special baskets to make the nest. One basket is smaller and fits into the bigger basket. I guessed on the prep time and cooking time.... More Prep:30m Cook:30m Servings:4	Hayleesgran
