Method
1) Rub boneless chicken legs with seasoning ingredients and marinade for about 15 minutes.
2) Use aluminium foil, place ginger slice on chicken leg and roll it up like a giant candy. Do the same to the rest. Steam over rapidly boiling water for about 25-30 minutes or till cooked through. (Retain the juice and set aside for later use).
3) Put the chicken ‘candy’ into icy cold water with the foil’s on (it’s to cool down the chicken and give it the jelly texture). Chill for about 4 hours.
4) Remove the foil and slice into pieces (pour the retain juice over the chicken) and serve with Chilli Sauce and Red Dates and Longan Sauce.
