Chicken Long Rice image

This is a popular dish served at luaus. It is a combination of several similar recipes from Local Kine Recipes (a Hawaiian educational site) and Ethnic Foods of Hawai'i by Ann Kondo-Corum, a high school librarian in Hawaii who compiled the book after so many students asked her for traditional Hawaiian ethnic recipes.
