Easy Chicken Recipe - Excellent website
I was watching Food Lovers Guide to Australia on the Asian Food Channel and was impressed with the relative ease of producing "Fortune Chicken" a dish I can eat locally here in Singapore . I googled the chef and found that it is an SBS programme. The web site is excellent thank you. Now I am super impressed with the fabulous recipes from all over. I'm hoping to use the site to master many of the local dishes that we love.
