This Steamed chicken is one of the many dishes that my family loves. It is both healthy and easy to prepare. What is more is that with the addition of Huiji Waist Tonic, this dish packed with even more nutrients which makes it an ultimate nutritious dish. This tonic consists of premium quality herbs and vitamins which strengthens both the body and waist, improves complexion, supplements both tendons and bones and even invigorates the spleen and stomach to ensure complete nourishment for your entire body. It is suitable for children 7 years old and above. Its so flavourful and wholesome that even my son wishes that he could be served such a meal in his National Service in the future!
The essence of the steamed chicken goes very well with the herbal tonic. It gives the sauce additional mouthwatering flavours that pairs perfectly well with a hot steamed rice. As always, my children would scramble to spoon out the sauce and drizzle it all over their rice, gobbling up their meals in minutes.
