Pan-fried garlic crispy chicken thigh steak

This pan-fried garlic crispy chicken leg is a "permanent guest" on my family's table, and the turnover rate is very high! The golden and crispy skin is wrapped with tender meat that is so tender that it will "burst with juice", and the garlic aroma slowly penetrates into the nose. Every time it is served on the table, the aroma first hooks people, take a bite, the crispy skin snaps, and the meat and garlic aroma explode in your mouth. Who can not love this for family members who love meat? It is a delicious and favorite~

steamed white cabbage rolls with minced meat

Steamed Chinese Cabbage Rolls with Minced Meat offer an enticing combination of textures: a layer of soft Chinese cabbage wraps around savory, spiced minced meat with a hint of ginger and garlic. A quick steaming session preserves the freshness of the vegetables while keeping the meat filling juicy. This dish is healthy and light, perfect as a daily side dish; however, it requires careful soaking of the cabbage to ensure the rolls don't fall apart easily, and precise steaming time to ensure the meat cooks thoroughly without drying out.
