- Heat a large pan with a moderate layer of oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and toss so it firms up.
- Get a pressure cooker ready with about 4 bowls of water. Add the chicken and carrots first; after about 5 minutes, add the lotus root and black beans.
- After about 20 minutes of stewing, add the jujubes and season with 2 tablespoons of seasoning powder. Stew for a final 5 minutes or so.
Ta-da. All done.
