Yes. We have around 50 chickens right now and I've been training our big rooster to fry rice. He's become quite proficient.

I can never get the chicken to taste the way I want it to.

Have you tried brining it? I tried that a couple years ago and it makes a world of a difference for chicken breast.

Yes, brining chicken involves putting it in saltwater for several hours (which can go overnight). You can also add herbs to enhance the flavor of the brine. I actually do this with a whole turkey every year for Thanksgiving, believe it or not!

I've never managed to make a fried rice dish that isn't just dry, flavourless and sad,

But i usually try doing it without any recipe and i have no idea what i'm doing, so i definitely have to give that one a try because that there looks gooood!

I've had great success with Mandy's recipes. Her recipe and detailed instructions are in the description of the video. I also made a big batch of her char siu and froze most of it. It shows up all the time in things that my wife is making.

It was really good. I think I could still improve my technique but I was happy with it. I found that it had too much of that classic soy sauce flavor. I think I should have used more dark soy sauce instead of light.

Mandy is great. Her, Wang Gang, Yihua Foods (一画美食), and Chinese Cooking Demystified for context are all you need for Chinese cookery on YouTube.

Ugh I wish it wasn't a video. Just give me a recipe, maybe a couple of pictures. Maybe. I can read a recipe in 30 seconds. Instead I have to watch a 7 minute video.
