EASY CHINESE SOY-BRAISED CHICKEN



Easy Chinese Soy-Braised Chicken image

This is a quick Cantonese recipe for succulent, melt-off-the-bone tender chicken from Diana Kuan's excellent blog, "Appetite for China". The liquid should cover at 3/4 of the chicken; if you need more liquid maintain the 2 parts soy sauce to 3 parts water ratio.

Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups soy sauce, more if needed (500 mL)
3 cups water, more if needed (750 mL)
1 piece ginger, peeled and sliced
3 tablespoons sugar (45 mL)
2 teaspoons cinnamon (10 mL)
1 teaspoon star anise (5 mL)
4 pieces chicken thighs (or a combination of the two) or 4 pieces chicken wings (or a combination of the two)
1 scallion, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Begin heating soy sauce and water over medium flame. Add ginger, sugar, cinnamon, and star anise.
  • Bring mixture to simmer and add chicken. Reduce heat to very low and cover casserole dish/pot. Make sure heat is as low as can be without turning off; simmering soy sauce can easily become rapidly boiling soy sauce, which can easily become a big mess to clean up.
  • Cook chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. Cut one open to check for doneness. Ladle chicken from sauce mixture and serve as is. Or if you're handy with a cleaver, chop up those thighs into smaller pieces. Garnish with scallions.

  • Take your chicken out of the refrigerator an hour before you plan to cook. You'll want it at room temperature when it hits the pot. Remove the giblets, and thoroughly rinse the chicken inside and out.
  • Grab your stock pot. It will ideally be a tall, narrow pot that will just fit the chicken, since it should be totally submerged in the cooking liquid (if you use a larger pot, you'll need to increase all the ingredients proportionally to create more cooking liquid). Put it over medium low heat, and add the oil and ginger.
  • Let the ginger caramelize for about 30 seconds. Then add the scallions and cook another 30 seconds. Add the star anise and wine (you can use Shaoxing rice wine, rose wine or a mix of both), and bring to a simmer to let some of the alcohol cook off. Add the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, salt, and water. Bring to a simmer again and cook on low heat for another 20 minutes.
  • Increase the heat to bring the liquid to a slow boil (i.e. a little stronger than a simmer, but not a rolling boil). Use a large roasting fork inserted into the chicken cavity to lower the chicken slowly into the pot breast side up. Make sure any air pockets in the cavity fill up completely with liquid. The chicken should be entirely submerged at this point.
