Steamed Chicken with Chinese Wolfberry

This Steamed Marinated Chicken with Mushrooms and Dates is a tender, flavorful dish bursting with aromatic spices and natural sweetness. Succulent chicken pieces are marinated with soy sauce, oyster sauce, minced ginger, garlic, and a touch of sesame oil for a rich umami depth. The magic lies in the layering—dried mushrooms at the base soak up savory chicken juices, while red dates add a delicate sweetness. Steaming under plastic wrap locks in moisture, ensuring juicy, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Finished with fresh scallion flowers for a bright crunch, this dish is a perfect balance of savory, sweet, and aromatic notes. Quick to prepare yet packed with complex flavors, it’s a comforting, restaurant-quality meal made at home!
