Dragon Chicken | Indo Chinese Chilli Chicken Recipe
Dragon Chicken | Indo-Chinese Chilli Chicken Recipe
Dragon Chicken is a contemporary Indo-Chinese dish that is easy to make and very impressive in taste! It can be fiery hot if you choose to make it that way. My Dragon Chicken is spicy, but not so spicy that my children can not eat it. They do not eat extremely spicy food. This being another fusion recipe, may be served with any fried rice, plain rice, or noodles as well as with bhature, parattas, or chapatis! My husband has taken to this dish quite keenly recently and I don’t mind since it’s quite quick to make. Check out the Video.

I wonder if, by “dark soy” you mean black / sweet soy sauce. What East Asian manufacturers label as dark soy is definitely darker, but not much thicker than light soy — and just as salty. Black (a.k.a. sweet) soy is the one that is almost as thick as honey and can be used as a dipping sauce.
Dark Soy Sauce that is not at all sweet, is used in this recipe. It is salty, just not as salty as light. The brand I use is a lot denser/ thicker than the light soy sauce. Although not as thick as sweet dark soy( kicap manis)..
