Cool Cut Drunken Chicken

This recipe calls for a lighter herbal taste, unlike the one that I normally have back at home. Nevertheless, it's refreshing and makes a cool cold platter.

Method
1. Discard bones from chicken drumstick, wash and clean up then place it into a bowl. Add in the herbs and chicken stock and steam it over high heat for about 15 minutes.
2. Remove it from soup and soak the drumstick into ice cold water to prevent the juice being drained out and to keep its tenderness.

4. Cut the drumstick into pieces and serve cool.
