RowdyR3b3l18 13 Posted December 14, 2019 Question for everyone. A lot of times I am on the road for hours working. My question is that in times when I do not have a chance to go home and have a meal would steamed chicken be ok from a Chinese restaurant? I know of course no sauce but wonder what everyone’s option is on this. Would imagine it would be ok but just curious. 1 1 sillykitty and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,221 Posted December 14, 2019 as long as you've been cleared for solid foods and as long as you can tolerate chicken, yes. Some people have a hard time with chicken the first few weeks or months. 2 sillykitty and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FluffyChix 17,415 Posted December 14, 2019 Yep. Make sure they don't "velvet" it with a slurry of cornstarch. But steamed fish, chicken, shrimp were my go-tos in the early days at restaurants!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms.sss 15,725 Posted December 14, 2019 Just checking, but according to your side profile you were sleeved 10 days ago? Has your team cleared you for solid foods? P.S. At 10 days post op I was just carrying around Protein Powder and a shaker bottle in my purse... 1 Bastian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZhiker 2,253 Posted December 14, 2019 (edited) try the egg drop Soup first. If I was just starting on solid Proteins, and had to eat steamed chicken from a Chinese take out, I would get the egg drop soup to moisten each bite really well. But be sure you are cleared for chicken first. Edited December 14, 2019 by AZhiker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once you are on solids it might be fine BUT like others have said try it at home first. I remember reading here about people struggling with chicken and I was like 'ooh weird, I won't though'. You guessed it the first time I had chicken breast it got stuck, 2nd time it got stuck and that was chewing it to nothing with gravy so I then decided to try thigh meat instead and it was fine. Always try new foods at home first tho coz you don't want to be ill when you are out working Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
