Shredded Chicken in Oyster Sauce

One of the tests of virtuosity in cooking, as in other endeavours, is to know when to leave the unimprovable as it is. In Hong Kong, many simple old-fashioned recipes have been untouched by the often radical innovations that characterize the new cuisine. This traditional Cantonese offering is one such classic. It is quick and easy to make. Serve it with rice and a vegetable dish and you have a tasty and nutritious meal.
