3-Cup Fried Chicken

[Barnyard Dawg]

My wife cooks a fried chicken she calls 3-cup chicken. She uses 1 cup of each, rice wine, olive oil and soy sauce. She will fry chicken whole then cuts up afterwards; surprisingly it only takes around 30-40 minutes.

Do you mean that she marinates the chicken in this mixture and then fries it? Or that she fries it to brown it and then simmers it in this mixture? Inquiring minds want to know.

She will actually add the 3-cups to a frying pan, high heat, then add the chicken. I have watched her and you do need to be careful not to have any water in your chicken since the mixture is very hot. When it is done it looks like a glaze on the chicken. This is not a marinade.

Ok, I understand now. Thanks!
