Today we have a recipe for Chicken Chop Suey Old Style. My grandfather’s restaurant, the New Look Cafe, served their chop suey this way. This style of chop suey is almost none existent in any Chinese restaurant anywhere. At least, I have not seen it on any menu in a Chinese restaurant in decades. It’s a simple, basic comfort which I enjoy once in awhile. Of course, I eat it with some hot, steamed rice on the side.
In this video, we use the cooked Walmart roast chicken, but you can use other kinds of chicken. You can also use other toppings, such as beef, pork, shrimp, prawns and other toppings. Recipe is below:

Chinese cooking made simple. Chinese food recipes that everyone can make, explained step by step. That’s my philosophy for cooking Chinese food.
