This Easy Casserole Chicken was originally a Chinese casserole recipe that I adjusted and fine-tuned so anyone can cook at home with just their pan or work, but with the same flavor outcome. Literally almost anywhere in the world, you can get these ingredients, since they are so easily available, here is my recipe for an Easy Casserole Chicken!

Simplifying The Traditional Chinese Casserole Chicken

I had this Chinese Casserole Chicken a lot when I was being a consultant back then in Guangzhou, China. Pieces of chicken that are seared to crispy edges, flavorful, with a light flavor of spices keep me looking for more. However, after I had left Guangzhou I never had the chance to have anything similar in Malaysia.

So I thought, let’s make one myself, without using a casserole, since a pan is definitely a lot more convenient than using a casserole at home.
p/s : I can’t take very spicy food, so I replace the chili peppers with capsicum instead.

Author have a say…

This recipe is usually cooked with a casserole. Traditionally, in China, it is called Casserole Chicken 砂锅鸡. But not everyone has the luxury of getting-everything-you-want in their kitchen, so I have slightly simplified the recipe and make it possible with a pan or a wok, so everyone can cook it at home!
