Do you watch Bizarre Food by Andrew Zimmern??.Or do you watch him eating Frog Leg in one of his show?.Well,I'm not Andrew or Bizarre but I do eat Frog Leg.Let me tell you,it's a really good dish not disgusting at all!!I remember years ago a friend of mine invited me to have dinner at Chinese restaurant on Avenue U in Brooklyn.He asked me to take a bite of "Sweet Chicken"(Cantonese translation "Tiam Kai") when I keep staring at the dish.He assure me the unusual dish is delicious .To my surprised,the frog leg texture is really soft and tender.I never cook frog leg in my kitchen so far until I saw it at Asian market in frozen section.Well,frog leg is a famous delicacy in Vietnamese and Chinese dishes.

Ingredients:

4-6 pieces or 1 packet frozen frog legs(clean and thawed)

5-6 cloves fresh garlic(minced)

2 inch ginger( sliced thin)

1 large onion(cut)

4-5 thai's chili(cut)

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp oyster sauce

The only edible part of a frog is its hind legs. The delicate meat is tender and lightly sweet and can be most closely compared to the white meat of a very young chicken.
