Fusion One Pot Chicken

I’ve been really busy recently writing My Story and starting my Lidl Campaign, meeting Dr Marios Hadjivassiliou (more about that in a future post) so much so that I have not had much time to blog about food.

So today this post is all about food and an amazingly delicious and simple grain and gluten free dish marrying Asian flavours with French influences. One Pot Asian Chicken, sweet and aromatic will blow your taste buds socks off and impress any dinner guest.

What’s more you don’t have to use lots of fancy kitchen equipment or pots….. just the one.

Chicken legs are also a very cheap but tasty part of the chicken. I often butcher my own chicken and use the carcus to make chicken stock (bone broth) see here, and then the breasts etc for other dishes.

Enjoy!

So simple and tasty looking. I also had no idea that soy wasn’t already gluten free until reading this recipe, good to know. Thanks!
