What can i use to flavour and cook my chicken dishes in different ways?
-
I use herbs such as rosemary, basil and coriander leaves, i use flavours such as pepper and indian flavours like curry , tandoori. i have very picky taste so i don't like the taste of thyme and paprika, and too many tomatoes. i love onions, garlic,ginger , pepper and chilli powder. I cook chicken as curry dishes, stews , soups and bake them with rosemary and herbs or sometimes tandoori, however now I'm fed up of these same old flavours can anyone suggest new ways of adding flavours and cooking chicken?? what is sweet and sour chicken? how do i cook that? what are the other ways of cooking chicken other than the traditional baking, stews and the famous indian ways??? any ideas? how do ppl from other countries and Cultures Cook Chicken?? pleas help! :) thanks

Answer:
By your flavor suggestions I would try a Mole sauce you can use any type of chicken whole, legs, thighs, breasts. Boil to cook first, then fry just a few minutes in oil, drain off oil and add mole sauce. You can either use a pre-made mole sauce available at most grocers in the mexican foods. Dona Maria is the best brand to use if you can find it. You can also make mole sauce and control what goes in it. Its a very unique mexican sauce with lots of flavor! You can google red mole sauce recipes and get lots of results and the best thing about mole is you can omit what you don't like and swap things out and get a flavor to better suit you. Most recipes you will see ask for bread, I have seen people use corn tortillas or animal crackers. Even the type of nuts, you can swap almonds for peanuts or sesame for pumpkin seeds, etc. It all sounds weird but yummy! And serve it with rice flavored with tomato sauce, a little dash of cumin, black pepper, garlic and salt!

boneless chicken fillets, cut into bite sized portions, are good for stir fries. you first marinate it with salt, pepper, some sesame oil, rice wine, an egg white, and some cornstarch. then you can blanch it in hot oil (be careful not to overcook). set it aside and you can have the following variations: sweet and sour - a mixture of sugar, vinegar, water, tomato sauce, and a dash of salt. you can substitute the vinegar with pineapple juice if you want. let the mixture simmer to form your sauce. meanwhile, saute some onions, ginger, pineapple slices, and bell peppers on high heat. add the chicken and the sauce then let boil for a couple of minutes. thicken with slurry chicken with cashew nuts - buy some hoisin sauce and mix with some water, sugar, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. begin by sauteeing some carrots, peas, sliced garlic, and cashew nuts on high heat. add the chicken and the sauce the let cook for a minute or so. thicken with slurry kung pao chicken - the sauce is made from sugar, water, black vinegar, soy sauce, and lots of dried chili. start by sauteeing some ginger, scallions, garlic, red onion and peanuts. add the chicken and the sauce then let it cook. thicken with slurry (cornstarch + water) SUBSTITUTE FOR RICE WINE: you can use any kind of chinese cooking wine (most of it is rice wine anyway) you can buy from an asian store. if you really cant find any, then just dont use any.
