Perfect with warm rice for a happy and hearty meal. Enjoy!

Note:

I haven't added any commercial seasonings to my chopsuey, but still taste great because the moisture from chicken itself will add flavor to the dish, and freshly ground black pepper adds taste to the dish.

You may add chicken liver, or quail eggs if available. It adds more taste to your chopsuey.

You may add different veggies available such as celery, mushroom, cabbage, baby corn green beans and so on.
Avoid over cooking veggies to retain nutrients.

Thank you very much for stopping by!
