My neighbour's friend gave him 2 bottles of homemade red rice wine residue [ang chow in hokkien dialect].  Not knowing what to do with it, he gave me a bottle.  So  I cooked this simple dish and shared half with him.   If he likes the taste, I will probably prepare another dish 'Ang Chow Char Siew' to share with him.   
'Ang Chow' [aka Hong Chow] is the residue from fermented red rice wine. It is believed to be good for health especially beneficial in lowering triglycerides and cholesterol.
Cooking this dish only requires 3 main ingredients. It can be served with rice or cook into a soup with flour vermicelli [mee suah] as a One Dish Meal. The chicken tastes even better after several hours. It can be freezed and reheated before serving .
