HOW TO COOK SANBEIJI (3 CUPS CHICKEN)

How to Cook Sanbeiji (3 Cups Chicken) –I still have this Taiwanese dishes fever, ha ha! Yes, I can’t get enough of these because I really like them. I only used to eat Asian dishes whenever I went to the restaurants in Chinatown (since Taiwan is also Chinese,) so I came up with the idea of making those foods in my very own way. What I am going to share with you this time is one of my favorite chicken dishes cooked by the Taiwanese- the Sanbeiji or what we call three cups chicken. I messed up with the recipe three times because I count get the exact amount of some of the ingredients like sugar and soy sauce so I would like to remind you that the amount of sugar and soy sauce depends on your taste. So if you are going to cook it for the very first time, please mind those ingredients. Here is how to cook Sanbeiji ( 3 Cups Chicken):
