If you are a fan of Thai food, you must try their pandan chicken. Pandan chicken is made by marinating the chicken in a pandan sauce, then wrapping the chicken pieces in pandan leaf for a colorful, flavorful dish that's beautiful to serve as an appetizer or main dish at a potluck or party. The leaf keeps the juices of the chicken inside, so you get very soft & juicy fried chicken. It`s very fragrant & tasty.
