Yummy Hainanese Chicken Chop recipe - with Benja Chicken

The traditional way of cooking Hainanese chicken/pork chops was with cream crackers. Our Hainanese forefathers had to improvise as it was difficult to get hold of bread crumbs in the past. Nowadays, it is hard to find any restaurant still using cream crackers, so the only way to taste this traditional dish is to make it yourself! Cream crackers give the crust a very different flavour compared to bread crumbs! The sauce is also made from the pan oil after frying the chicken which gives that extra oomph!
I’ve used Benja Chicken in this recipe as it has been lab proven to be 55% juicer than regular chicken, making the chicken chop much more tender and juicy! Here is my recipe:

Do you know how to make Hainanese Curry Rice? The curry, specifically? It's my favorite local food. I tried making it but have not been successful. 😀Love your videos, btw.

[@ieatishootipost]

is it safe to deep fry in olive oil?

[@ieatishootipost]

Yes, so long as you don't overheat the oil.

I always wonder, why they have to dump the sauce in top, like cannot seperate out one bowl for me to drink the sauce?

[@ieatishootipost]

Save having to wash the bowl
