Chicken With Two Onions In Sand Pot

I am secure in Christ. His presence and His approval is all that matters. Therefore I can make it my ambition to live out by grace perfecting holiness, not what I want to be but what I already am and who I will practically be for an eternity in heaven. I will not be continually defeated by a wounded ego, but will be at peace devoting the rest of my days not to the vain emptiness of self-love that lives for the sinful and the temporary. I know I am already loved by God. I can get out of the way and seek with God’s love now in me to spread of that love back to God and others. I will not use people to meet my needs, but realize my needs are met in the sufficiency of Christ and seek to bless the needs of others instead as Christ lives His life through me.

INSTRUCTIONS

Note 1: See the "Chinese Chicken Soup Stock" recipe which is inclued
in this collection. * Note 2: Peel and cut the onions into 8 wedges
each; divide the wedges into leaves.  Cut the chicken and mix with the
marinade. Allow to sit for 15  minutes. Heat a wok and add one-half of
the oil. Chow (stir-fry) the  garlic and salt for just a moment. Add
the chicken, drained of the  marinade. Reserve the marinade. Brown the
chicken well on all sides  and add the broth. Cover and cook until the
chicken is done to your  taste. Remove the cover and allow the broth to
reduce a bit. Remove  all from the wok and set aside. Heat the wok and
add the remaining  oil. Chow the onions until the yellow ones begin to
brown a bit.  Return the chicken to the wok along with the remaining
ingredients  except the lettuce but including the marinade. Chow for a
few moments  so that all is hot. Place the lettuce in a 4-quart sand
pot or  stove-top casserole. Top with the chicken and onions and cover.
Place  on the stove and heat until the pot is very hot. Serve
immediately.  This recipe serves 4 to 6 as part of a Chinese meal.
Comments: This dish will have an unusual flavor due to the use of the
wonderful five-spice powder. If you do not have a sand pot you can  use
a stove-top casserole.  Recipe Source: THE FRUGAL GOURMET by Jeff Smith
