Beer Chicken image

Beer sauce complements chicken very well, especially with tomatoes and veggies. This recipe is from Yangshuo, China, a tourist village near Guilin with hills like in Chinese watercolour paintings. The famous local fare is "beer fish" and I've adapted the recipe from 7th Heaven Cafe.
