Steamed Spicy Chicken image

Posted of ZWT II. This recipe comes from Thai Cooking Class . . . I've not tried, but it looks like an interesting method of cooking... and it doesn't require the purchase of an additional kitchen gadget! DH will not eat chicken, so hope someone will try and let me know how well it works.
