O.K., food fans... here is a drop dead easy dish that sounds a bit wild but is really fantastic!
Ingredients;
1 chicken (or a bunch of chicken parts)
2-3 cloves of garlic
teaspoon of sugar
10+ scallions... the more the merrier
3-4 tablespoons of "Dark" Chinese Soysauce
1 cup of oil (I use olive but corn, peanut, canola, safflower, etc. will work just as well.
3-4 pks of instant ramen noodles..
Boil the chicken. Don't worry about any seasonings, just boil it, then let it cool. When cool, tear into bite-size pieces. Smaller is better.
Boil water for the ramen noodles
Chop the scallions, both white and green parts, into 1" pieces
Mince the garlic
Put one cup of oil into a small saucepan
Put the chicken, scallions, and garlic into a large Pyrex bowl, sprinkle with sugar and soy sauce.
When the water for the noodles is just about boiling, turn on the heat under the cup of oil. When the oils is beginning to smoke add the noodles to the WATER, then slowly pour the oil onto the chicken/scallion/garlic/sugar/soysauce mix (not into the water!) Be careful as it may spit a little. Give it a quick stir and pour on the rest of the hot oil and stir. Then tip the bowl so the oil drains to one side (Move the Chicken mix to the opposite side)
The noodles only take two minutes so drain them and put into bowls.
Carefully remove the chicken mix from the Pyrex bowl, transferring to a serving dish. If you do it right, you will discover that there is just about one cup of oil sitting in the bottom of the Pyrex bowl and the chicken dish is not the least bit greasy! Serve on top of the Ramen noodles... This is one you will make again and again!
