1. 1

   Marinate the chicken mid-joints with salt, white pepper, and Shaoxing wine. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.

   Steam the salted duck egg yolks for 10 minutes until cooked through. Mash them with a fork.

   Add the mashed salted duck egg yolks to the pan. Stir-fry constantly until the yolks become frothy and a sauce forms.
