Jar Doo Gai??

Ok that may or may not be horribly misspelled but here is the quote from a friend of mine looking for this dish:

Basically it had bite-sized chunks of white meat chicken, uncoated, which were dipped in a variety of things in small bowls which were served with it, including a white granular powder. It was quite flavorful, and it brought about the epiphany that turned me away from being a picky eater and into the adventurous gourmand I am now! I don't remember what else it was served with, besides rice.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

To clarify, my firend had it in a Chinese type restaurant in IN in the 80's. It may have been a Korean chinese place.
