    Great and delicious super simple recipe. I used cut chicken breast as that's all I had but it still worked perfect.

    Sooo yummy and easy. I have a multi cooker with a steaming function which made it nice and easy.

    I have never steamed chicken in this manner before but love ginger so we thought we would give it a go. The flavours are delicate but powerful at the same time and the meat just melts in your mouth. I got up in the middle of the night and had a little more. Love it and will definitely cook this recipe again.

    This is the most delicious way to cook chicken. I will be making it every week! The only thing I would say is that the chicken needs to be steamed for 30 minutes rather than 15-20 minutes. I followed the instructions for the cooking times the first time I cooked it, and the chicken was still raw in parts. Aside from that, it's perfect!

    Steamed the dish with the chicken in a steamer as I don’t have a wok - took 30 mins, very good recipe. Served with stir fried broccoli and bean sprouts
