Irresistible Chicken Dishes

Chicken gets a bad rap as boring or bland, but Chef Jet Tila's chicken recipes are savory, unctuous and sticky. He whips up two world-famous chicken dishes that prove just how delicious chicken can be, starting with mouthwatering Thai BBQ Chicken paired with Papaya Salad. Then, Jet moves on to what is considered Taiwan's national dish -- Three Cup Chicken.

Three Cup Chicken

This is Taiwan's national dish. The "three cups" refer to the primary ingredients: soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil. I must admit, I use less than a full cup of sesame oil! It is originally a Chinese dish, but very popular in Taiwan. This version, with Thai basil, is made in the Taiwan style. The traditional Jiangxi recipe has no basil.
