Ludwig’s Oriental Chicken with Tausi, or black beans, is a flavor-packed dish that is sure to delight your taste buds. The combination of tender chicken, savory black beans, and a mix of tangy and sweet flavors creates a unique and delicious taste experience.
Not only does this dish taste great, but it also provides several health benefits. Black beans are known for their high levels of antioxidants, fiber, and protein. They are also known to help reduce the risk of several health issues. However, it is important to note that if using salty black beans, it is best to reduce the amount of salt used in the recipe.
To make the dish, the chicken is first sautéed with garlic and onions until it is cooked through. The black beans are then added to the pan, along with a mix of red or green chili pepper, sugar, and soy sauce. This creates a delicious and tangy sauce that perfectly complements the chicken and black beans.
The dish can be served with steamed rice or as a filling for lettuce wraps. The Oriental Chicken with Tausi is a perfect dish for those looking for a healthy and flavorful meal that is easy to prepare. Ludwig’s recipe showcases how a few simple ingredients can come together to create a delicious and nutritious dish that is sure to impress.
