Nga Choy Kai ala Michelle Yeoh

I recently read that Michelle Yeoh, the Oscar-winning Malaysian-born actress, enjoy a meal of Ipoh’s famous nga choy kai, or, literally, bean sprouts chicken. I decided to cook my own version of that meal, from the poached chicken thigh to the fragrant rice and the blanched bean sprouts. I even made the special chilli sauce that goes with the chicken. The chicken and the bean sprouts were seasoned with a light soy sauce and sesame oil. It was a simple and light lunch, but I loved it. Yum!
