What is chicken stock concentrate?
8 Answers
I have a stir fry recipe and the sauce, amongst other things, calls for 200ml chicken stock concentrate - do we think this is just 200ml of a normal oxo cube/water mixture or is 'stock concentrate' something different? I've never come across this term before and always use oxo cubes and water when normal stock is listed in a recipe.
Any opinions most appreciated, preferably before tomorrow when I am intending to cook the stir fry!
Thanks.

1 tablespoon runny honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
200ml chicken stock concentrate
This is to go over two chicken breasts stir fried with a red pepper and some spring onions. A whole jar of what you posted would surely kill people?!

Well I used 200ml of chicken oxo and the sauce was fine. The chicken, however, was another matter. The recipe said to cube two chicken breasts, toss them in cornflour then fry them in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil until 'a light golden batter forms'. Well what actually formed was a very gluey slab across the bottom of my wok and some very naked and undercooked chicken sat on top of it. No idea what went wrong :(
