Talk about double duty: I’ve been playing homage to the Lunar New Year by eating some of my favorite Chinese dishes while watching the Olympics.
This year, according to the Chinese horoscope, is the Year of the Tiger. It’s basically a yearlong look at your position on the lunar landscape of animal zodiac signs.
Legend has it that the lunar calendar’s animal order is based on a folktale known as"The Great Race." The Jade Emperor, an important god in Chinese tradition, sent the animal kingdom an invitation and 12 different species turned up.The course included a river and it was the rat who came in first. The cunning rat hopped on the ox as he crossed the river and jumped off at the finish. The ox, although on the rat’s heels, had to settle for second.
This year celebrates the tiger. Born leaders who walk and talk assertively, tigers are predicted to be courageous and energetic, love a challenge and are prepared to take risks. Hungry for excitement and craving attention, they are also brave, competitive, unpredictable, confident and display great levels of willpower.But, back to the food, in recognition of the games and grub, this week’s recipe is a winner.
Heat oil in Dutch oven and add chicken breasts skin side down. Fry until golden, turn to brown other side. Turn heat down, add broth to cover. Add star anise, onion, garlic and ginger. Cook chicken until just done, cool slightly in broth.
