3 lb chicken
1 leek
1/2 lb bacon
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp rice wine
3/4 cup red dates

Directions:

Wipe chicken with a damp cloth and chop, bones and all in 2 inch pieces. Cut leek in half inch sections.
Slice bacon thick and then into 1 inch strips. Place in a cold pan and brown lightly over a medium heat. Drain on paper towelling.
Reheat bacon fat. Add leek; stir fry a few times. Add chicken and brown quickly.
