I still watch Martin Yan on local PBS stations. I loved Yan Can Cook when I was younger and I still love him. He is so enthusiastic and excited about his ingredients and recipes. He is infectious and helped develop my love of Asian cuisine. I have a special place in my heart (or tummy?) for Vietnamese and Thai dishes but love Japanese and Chinese as well. Just getting acquainted with Korean dishes and love all of the other Asian cultures dishes represented here and will definitely be trying many of them. Love this site and think you educate us non-Asian cooks very well in the traditions, techniques, ingredients and beauty of Asian dishes. Thank you so much.

The chicken was fabulous! Light & crispy, fried very quickly in the wok & wasn’t greasy at all. I’m sold on wok frying forever! I just dredged the chicken in corn starch (no eggs) because of the wetter marinade.

My paring it with black bean & garlic eggplant, which was my idea, unrelated to this recipe, was perhaps not the best choice. Individually each was delicious, together the dish was a bit one-note, next time I will pair it with other vegetables.

I am making this with black bean & garlic eggplant, so I’m experimenting with this recipe, marinating the chicken in black bean & garlic paste with lime juice, sugar, rice wine vinegar & sesame oil & just coating it with corn starch, which will also thicken the eggplant sauce… will post results.

Huge fan of frying and that picture surely looks worth trying to create it.

Just love the photo of the food, all wrapped up like the kacang putih that is sold by the Indian vendors.

I remember doing just that, too — crowding around the TV with my family to watch Martin Yan go “Chop it up, Chop it up!” on public television.No one can wield a cleaver like he can. He has mad skills! ;)
This crispy chicken looks heavenly. But then again, it’s hard not to adore any fried foods.

Martin Yan is definitely my ultimate TV food guru and his cookbooks are awesome too.
