Portuguese chicken[1] (traditional Chinese: 葡國雞; simplified Chinese: 葡国鸡), also known as Portuguese-style chicken or galinha à portuguesa[2] (Portuguese pronunciation: [ɡɐˈlĩɲaapuɾtuˈɣezɐ]) is a dish found in Macanese cuisine.
Despite its name, Portuguese chicken did not originate from Portugal, but from its former colony Macau.[2] The dish is not found in Portuguese cuisine.[3]
The dish consists of chicken pieces served with Portuguese sauce, which is likened to a mild yellow curry thickened with coconut milk.[4]
