How to Make Three Cup Chicken 

Hello, Bridget and Julia, you two made me laugh out loud 😁😁😁 when you discussed the pronunciation of "marinade" and "vase" (4:56). I shall definitely remember Bridget's twenty-dollar rule for a vase if I ever shop for one. 😊😊

I think the reason this channel works so well is because you just sort of assume these two are going to Bed Bath and Beyond together on the weekends...❤️

I just made this. Like a lot of commenters here, I thought there might be too much soy sauce so I reduced it to a quarter of a cup. I got some Thai basil at an Asian market. I think it’s really worth the effort to find it because the Thai basil adds a bit of a star anise flavor to the dish. I will definitely make this again.

I respect the improved effort at pronunciation. Thank you! I grew up eating this as a kid in rural Oklahoma. My mom had to find the ingredients to make it work. (In fact, a guest cook who has mastered this dish would make a great feature in this video!) With effort, I’m sure your viewers can make it work, too!

I have made something similar for years never added the Basil, and usually just added onion. I like your procedure, it fits perfectly. I will have to try your version.

Bonless thighs are extraordinarily handy. I will always buy them on sale then cut them into various respective sizes, two thighs to a freezer bag, add some soy sauce, flatten and freeze them. When needed, they thaw on the counter in an hour. Add 2tbsp corn starch to velvet the chicken, toss it in a skillet with some garlic and ginger, add some orange chicken sauce. You will never go to that bear restaurant ever again. Or chicken, garlic, ginger...add toasted cashews and zucchini. hoisin sauce, soy, and sesame oil... boom. cashew chicken. Or chicken, garlic optional.. white wine (Beringer chardonnay works great), butter, capers.. boom. chicken piccata. Etc etc I serve any of these over rice but with the piccata in particular, I saute some thinly sliced green cabbage with salt and a dusting of onion powder which really seems to mitigate the (in my opinion) overwhelming sweetness of cooked cabbage. You can also throw a handful of cabbage directly on top of the chicken if you like it more homogenized. Just add more wine and butter. 😊

Thanks for making good cooking simple.

So enjoy you ladies...

Great recipe, I can't wait to try it.. I love how well you both work together!

This is one of those meals that I only tried once and immediately knew I had to learn how to make it because of how good it was. Only cooked it once since, but I gotta try this recipe next!

Looks so good will try

Looks amazing! I would definitely have with a little steamed rice!

Love this recipe! Would really love to see you make an easy Asian eggplant recipe too!

Can you do a mango chicken recipe or orange chicken

You gales are the best!

That chicken is looking great and I have to try making some of that and see how it tastes.

I make something close to this, but will be making this version soon!

I really like your recipe of 三杯雞🎉

Traditionally also made in a clay pot. Good to see this wasn't Americanized.

I made this tonight and it was delicious. I highly recommend cutting the soy sauce to 1/4 cup and use a low sodium one.

Actually i buy bone in skin on. With a good pair of shears I can get the bone out easily. Then season the skin and chicken and skin side down in your fat of choice over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes.And I do freeze the bones to make stock too.

Kudos to ATK for taking on a classic.

Great dish; is that skillet your OXO?

I couldn't wait to make it, so I made it without the wine and used water instead. It had superb flavor, but seemed a bit too salty. This is a new favorite Chinese dish for my wife and I.

Wonderful dish and delightfully presented by Bridget and Julia !

You gals are awesome!!! You now have made me hungry LOL but true

Sesame oil is not meant for cooking. It’s a finishing oil.

Awesome sauce!

Aiiiiyah, you make 3 cup chicken with no wok.

It should use sesame oil to stir with ginger in the begining to generat the unique aroma n taste of yhis dish i /o adding sesame oil at the end.

I'm drooling! ☺

Ooof. That sounds goood.

I like the final comment "I would be willing to go to prison for this one" lol, just hope its not for the death penalty.

Girls you are the best!

Use the back of your knife to scoop up chopped matter, NOT THE BLADE. As effective as using a blade scraper, doesn't dull the blade, plus one less tool to clean up.

How long do you marinate the chicken? This looks like a fabulous recipe!

At 8:00 her whisk somehow turns in to a wooden spoon as she knocks off the excess liquid against the edge of the pan

looks great. and thanks for saying not to use chicken breasts, though you know people will

I saw the rerun episode on tv, so I tried the recipe today. Easy and delicious. But I confess that I cheated on the ginger and garlic, and used powdered instead of fresh. Obviously it’s better with fresh, but it was fine using the cheater ingredients.

With less than a million subs how does this channel fund such a huge kitchen? Is it also on cable television in the states?

Looks good. Hungry. Glad I have some leftover General Chicken I can nuke in a few minutes! 😘

Breh, how you make a video yesterday that looks like its from 1995, thats wild.

Haiyaaaaaaaaa...

Americanese, is what we have here. Missed its publication but definitely trying it.

Can you guys make bourbon chicken

I tried this tonight and followed the recipe to the letter. It came out a bit too salty. I'd drop the amount of soy sauce by half. Otherwise, very good!

I tried this recipe and it came out too salty!! I still love you guys but would recommend half the amount of soy sauce. And maybe use a bit more sugar like 1.5 to 2 TBS.

Why aren’t you using a wok?🤔

Chinese town of doo-doo?

The basil leaves at the end is rubbish we are NOT making Thai food... use Chinese parsley/ Coriander and you dont dump corn starch solution in 1 area... you drizzle it over the entire pan

What happened to this video, I can bearly hear it. Most of your videos are spot on?

Lemme get in there, and direct, y'all be the next bon appetite, on god.

Is that video in the background?

American Chinese food.

Ugh, looks like Panda Express. Two big sins. Not browning the chicken and using boneless instead of hacked on the bone. As authentic as chop suey

It’s totally wrong..... please don’t follow this recipe....

If I left out the cornstarch slurry, this would be a pretty good Ketogenic recipe. Thank you.

So 2 cup chicken

Why are you doing Asian recipes? You guys should go to Asian and taste what the real dishes taste like. Your recipe isn't even close to the original.

When are you going to use grams as measurements?

Made this recipe and it was way too salty even with rice. Next time I'd dilute the soy sauce. Not a fan of the slices of ginger either.

3 cups, one chicken

3 cup chicken is not 3 cup chicken if the sesame oil is replaced with ordinary oil. Not authentic. Too westernised.

xD... I mean It gets the white folks start eating something similar to the authentic version.

Can you show how to clean ALL vegetables, cauliflower,green onions , broccoli, lettuce . Thank You.

REPEAT ???

🤤💕💕💕👍🏼

This recipe is a mess. And needs at least twice the amount of garlic and ginger.

Their bastardized version of 3 cup chicken and I do mean bastardized

Followed recipe to the tee, sorry was not a fan

No. No. No. Awful. Of course the meat needs to be browned. This looks disgusting. Not even close to what it should look like.

please stick to the cuisine you know. The Chinese dishes on show is often a insult to a authentic Chinese chef. It's often not how we cook although there are signs of self taught methods or Google cooking. Like char siu, when tomato sauce and fat is cut off from the meat it's what we don't do. Char Siu is pale looking and to roast or broil for an hour shows it tells me they chancers. Yet people still watches.

this is such a disgrace to the original recipe. i cant believe the dish can be so whitewashed

I wonder if this would work with fish...

save those rot ends stick them in a pot and they grow

嘿！薑不用把皮刮掉，我真的覺得別把「紅燒」當成「三杯」呀！

Marinade... proper pronunciation is in the dictionary. The E on the end makes it a hard A.

"Precious" when cutting the chicken. 😆 Shouldn't it be "precise"? Must be a scripting error in the voice over work. 😁

I prefer 3 beer mug chicken. Marinate 1 for chicken; marinate 2 for me. And the way this lousy East Bay SanFran CISCO network is running - someone is already plastered and taking up all the bandwidth .....

so......this is a repeat, aka rerun for the boomers on here...stop feeding this channel for recycled material

Two girls Three cups

I have never used Sesame Oil as a saute oil and I've never seen Chinese cooks do it either. It's strictly for flavoring.

American teaching how to cook traditional Chinese food.... Make China Great Again

2 girls 3 cups

Wash your hands after touching that raw chicken 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁. How do you wash that cutting board after that raw chicken ????????

at least he didn't make him some runny egg foo young ....

Nope.
