Bean Sprout
Bean sprouts are a common ingredient, especially in Asian cuisine, made from beans by sprouting. You can use it specially with chicken but first you need to stir-fry.
The typical bean sprout is made from the greenish mung beans. In Japanese, the word moyashi refers to, in a strict sense, the mung sprout (the greenish capped ones), and the usually yellow, larger-grained soy sprouts are called mame-moyashi.
The sprouted beans are supposed to be more nutritious than the original beans.

Famous quotes containing the word sprout:
“The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
