Whoa! To paraphrase Julia Child, Chef Flam must enjoy cooking with wine, sometimes he even puts it in the food he’s cooking 😉
This recipe makes no sense. Can you straighten it out so we can actually enjoy the recipe for its usability, and not just the lopsided quantities of the ingredients?
Please advise response to below comment from Deborah Krupnick. I have similar questions. Thank you
The recipe calls for 4 quarts of water with the soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and garlic. Is 4 quarts correct? That is one gallon of water! That is a ton of water for one chicken in a pan. Also, the 3/4 cup soy sauce and the 1/4 cup ginger in that same sauce also seem to be huge amounts. Later on, the recipe calls for 1 lb scallions and 2 lbs mushrooms. The scale of the ingredients seems totally off for one chicken.
Also, I like to see continuity in recipes and that the picture reflects the written recipe. Your picture shows a whole chicken in the pan, while your recipe calls for 1 chicken cut up. Also, the last direction in the recipe calls for garnishing the chicken with additional cilantro and the picture clearly shows thyme sprigs over the chicken but no thyme was listed in the ingredients.
Someone made a few booboos with this recipe. If you need a content proofreader, please feel free to call me.
sounds delicious and will give it a try as have a chicken in 1/8ths in the freezer. Will let you know. But yes wish picture looked like what the recipe calls for.
