Wash the chicken, drain it and cut it into small pieces. In order to obtain a more delicate taste, chicken can be ground into minced meat.

Seasonings such as soy sauce, cooking wine and pepper can also enrich the taste of chicken balls. According to personal preference, you can also add spices such as coriander and shallot to enhance its aroma.
When mixing chicken meat, it is necessary to add starch or bread crumbs properly.
