Black Bean Sauce Chicken Recipe
Black Bean Sauce Chicken is a simple yet delicious Asian dish and you can easily make it in the slow cooker or crockpot.
The Chinese black beans or black bean sauce is different from the black beans in Mexican cuisine.
These are actually fermented soy beans in garlic, salt and other seasonings.
There are many Asian dishes that call for this ingredient so it is almost a must in Asian kitchens.
Since this is common ingredient in Asian cuisine, you should be able to find black bean sauce in the regular supermarket.
I do prefer the Lee Kum Kee brand's Black Bean Garlic Sauce which is what I use to prepare this dish.
