    So happy you're enjoying Prime Time as much as we enjoy making it. Check out our critic Ryan Sutton's two-star review here: ny.eater.com/2018/2/27/17053136/win-son-nyc-review-two-stars-taiwanese-american

      I didn't see the whole chicken listed in the review you linked. Did they decide it was too much effort? It looked delicious, and I think it's a shame that more restaurants don't serve dishes or entire meals family style.

    This recipe comes from a Shanghai-nese dish called "8 treasure duck". I've been doing something like this for my Thanksgiving turkey for years, basically you can just put it in the oven low and slow and blast it at the end. To me, the key is to put the rice in under cooked and seal the chicken so the bird forms something like a rice cooker.

    There's a similar one using duck, and it should be steamed before fried.
    But I guess chickens don't need steaming since they're smaller.

    I had a whole fried chicken at a restaurant somewhere off I-70 in Indiana back in the early 80's. They fried it on the bone and brought it to the table with a whole bag of white bread and a fresh container of Parkay. It was so funny because we didn't realize it was going to be fried whole and that it would arrive rolling around on a plate, like bloated roadkill! In the end, it was an amazing meal and though we looked for it on several trips we never could find the place again!

    In the Chinese dish, they stuff all the limbs and segment it into smaller bits rather than slice it whole.
    That being said, this looks really delicious. The garnishes and dressing really distinguish it from the traditional dish.
    I wonder if they season the inside before stuffing it?

  • @1558k
    @1558k Před 3 lety

    For a cheap winner, chicken dinner, buy a roasted whole chicken (already seasoned) on its expiration date and put it in a pressure cooker for 25 min or so. It will be so ready to pick apart and quickly. It will produce at least 3-4 meals in cassoroles or bbq.

      @lleo3638 Před 4 lety

      I'm sorry but obviously not "this is" since they are so different, the only similarities are chicken, rice and submerge. Sam = ginseng, gye /ke = chicken, tang = soup / broth, the name itself indicates chicken soup.

    I believe the chef was referencing R&G Lounge in San Francisco. I grew up across the bay and I used to order this dish at the former China Station in Berkeley. Needs at least 24 hours advanced notice and it's not cheap. Presentation is also completely different, it is flattened out, less meat and cut in squares. Best of luck to these guys on their rendition.

    Interesting and yummy. FYI the Philippines has a version called Chicken Relleno. Its also de-boned and stuffed with a meatloaf mixture similar to Lumpia Shanghai and sometimes whole boiled eggs. Its roasted instead of deep fried. We also have a version where a whole milk fish is de-boned and stuffed with minced fish meat and veggies.

    The great myth, that rest time makes a huge difference in doneness. The smaller a cut of meat is the less the temp rises during rest. A large brisket barely rises 10 degrees, a steak only rises a couple degrees. Letting that first chicken rest a touch more isn't gonna help Jack.

    If you have the chicken already deboned and stuffed in the cooler, you only have to fry it....then it takes only 13 minutes. That’s not too long to put it on the menu

    • @lepidoptery
      @lepidoptery Před 6 lety

      No, it would take longer because the filling would be cold, too, and then I think it would be overcooked. But I guess you can definitely do the deboning beforehand, and have your rice cooker full of the stuffing. Then you just stuff and fry.

    I wonder if an Asian McDonald's burger flipper has ever reflected before he started his day and thought "As an Asian dude this is something that I'm going to try to respectfully and humbly approach, my mentor was a clown from America called Ronald. He identifies politically as an American and he explained to me that there's like a cultural nuance about burgers which is like something and some other stuff. So ya that's kind of a philosophy I hold myself to. Respectfully"
