Chinese Soy Sauce Chicken is an easy recipe to make. The chicken is delicious and tender. The ingredients added to the soy sauce makes this a tasty and flavourful taste treat. Be sure to keep the soy sauce that the chicken was cooked in. It can be used to add flavor to a lot of dishes. Below is the recipe:
Chinese Soy Sauce Chicken
1 whole chicken
Wash chicken in cold water. Boil 6 cups water and pour over chicken, inside and out.
1 piece ginger (about 3 tbsp.)
6 star anise
2 pieces Chinese dried orange peel
1 tbsp. cumin seeds
1 tbsp. salt
3 tbsp. rock sugar
2 cups water
2 cups light soy sauce
1/4 cup dark soy sauce
Put light and dark soy sauces in a cooking pot. Add water. Bring to a boil. Add ginger, star anise, Chinese dried orange peel, cumin, salt and rock sugar. Boil ingredients for 5 minutes and set temperature at low to medium low. Put the chicken in the pot, breast side down. Cover pot with a lid and simmer chicken for 20 minutes. Then turn chicken over and cover with lid again. Simmer for 10 minutes. Shut off heat. Turn chicken back again to breast side down. With heat off, cover the pot with the lid for final 15 to 20 minutes. Remove chicken and let cool off for 15 to 20 minutes before cutting. In the meantime, strain the soy sauce that the chicken was in into bowls or containers. This "secret sauce" can be used in stir frys, fried rice and other recipes. I will use this secret sauce in different recipes in future videos that I will be uploading. Stay tuned.
