Malay (chicken)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Malay Chicken is a very large breed of fowl that is originally from Asia. The word "Malay" refers to an ethnic race populating South East Asia as well as the Malay Archipelago. Commercial egg or meat production facilities are sourced from poultry chicken because the Malay Chicken are usually found only in the rural areas and villages.

[edit] Preparation

Malay Chicken is a tougher sort of meat than many other breeds. Because of this, the Malay chicken is often double boiled in herbs, or stewed. Recipes for it often call for curry, garlic, cumin, turmeric, etc.
