Chinese Food Chicken

I've always wondered, does anyone know what type of chicken is used in chinese dishes? Tonight my fam had chinese take out, and they were ordering it, and I usually pass. But I just got back from the gym, so I figured what the heck....I had a large dish of chicken in black bean sauce with onions and broccoli...With a bunch of brown rice...

Does anyone know the quality (protein wise) of the chicken they use? What kind is it anyways? It's always in weird small shaped pieces. I've never understood what type of chicken it is. I mean chicken breast and rotisserie chicken seem much different.

If they say it's chicken, probably chicken. It may taste different because of all of the oils and sauces involved.

Chinese food in general is very unhealthy. Drink the Chinese tea with your chinese meals.

it's chicken breast, but it's also cooked in oil and breaded before doused with a sugary sauce.

still, it's fine every once in a while.

A lot of the meat they use is chicken thighs. It's MUCH cheaper, and more flavorful.

I second that. Chinese food is gross. I guess they don't have a PF Changs anywhere around me.

Lettuce wraps, and some mongolian beef...Every now and then, I'll have the catonese shrimp and consider it a clean meal
