This is one of the most popular home-cooked chicken dish in Indonesia and our family favorite. We call it "Ayam Saos Inggris" in Indonesia. Over the years, I have been trying different ways and ingredients before finally settle with this one. Instead of deep frying like the way it is usually cooked, I just brown the chicken for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
The ingredients: Blue Band is the famous Indonesian brand margarine but lately I have been using regular butter instead.
The process:
Worcestershire Sauce Chicken
