Steamed Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup green onions, sliced

Instructions:

1. Place the chicken breasts on a plate or in a dish and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper.
3. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure it’s evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours.
4. Fill a large pot with about 1 inch of water and place a steamer basket inside. Heat the water over medium-high heat until it comes to a simmer.
5. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in the steamer basket. Cover and steam for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (165°F internal temperature).
6. Remove the chicken from the steamer basket and place it on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and serve hot.

Verdict:

This steamed chicken recipe is a healthy and delicious way to enjoy chicken without adding extra fat or calories. It’s easy to prepare, and the marinade adds plenty of flavor without being overpowering. Serve it alongside some steamed vegetables and brown rice for a complete meal.
