In reply to Natasha Osmanbhoy. I never try because it's readily available here. However, I don't see any reason it can not be done.

Can I use frozen pandan leaves to wrap? I can’t find fresh ones where I live. Thank you!

I just made this today for dinner! The plate was finished so fast! It’s soooo good! My dad who is a food critic said it’s very delicious, much better than in the restaurant! Thank you for sharing this recipe!

Hi Louise,
We can’t prevent the liquid from coming out from the chicken if it is too wet. If you marinate the chicken for a long time, the flavor will absorb into the chicken, and the excess marinade will become unnecessary. Drain away any excess marinade before wrapping and frying to prevent the oil from splattering.

Hello. I just made this wondering dish. I have one question though. When I fry it, the oil kept flying out because of the liquid in the pandan chicken. How to prevent this? Thank you.

Hi Patricia,
I prefer thigh meat too, actually. It has more flavor than breast meat.

Hi Mr Kwan, I just made it. I didn’t steam, but marinate it overnight. Taste delicious and meat is succulent! My family love it.

Note: I use thigh meat

Thank you!

Hi Annette,
That is a good point. Marinating the chicken makes all the difference!

Made this last week. Super good and considered moderately easy for such a challenging recipe. But make you have enough time for chopping and marinating and wrapping. 2 hours marinating is important.
