4 cups light chicken stock
1 cup Chinese rice wine
1 inch-long piece of ginger, peeled and sliced
1 small onion, peeled and quartered
2 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 chicken (about 2kg)
small piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated (peel reserved)
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
3 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tbsp Shaohsing wine or dry sherry
2 tbsp soy sauce
150ml chicken stock
1 tbsp honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 star anise
2 Little Gem lettuces, leaves separated
1 bunch of spring onions, trimmed and finely shredded
½ cucumber, cut into thin strips
1 red chilli, sliced
small bunch of coriander, chopped
50g roasted peanuts or cashews, roughly chopped
cooked rice, to serve

Steps:

  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Sit the chicken in a casserole dish, rub the marinade all over, and put the ginger peel in the cavity. Cover and leave at room temperature to marinate for 1 hr, or in the fridge overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix the stock ingredients in a jug, then pour over the chicken. Roast for 1 hr, uncovered, then baste with the liquid in the dish. Roast for 30-40 mins more, basting every 10 mins, until the chicken is deep brown. Keep an eye on the glaze in the base of the dish - you may need to add a splash of water to keep it from burning.
  • Leave the chicken to rest for 20 mins, then transfer to a board. Skim the fat from the juices, bring to the boil, then turn off the heat. Shred the thigh and leg meat and wrap in the lettuce leaves along with the spring onions, cucumber, chilli, coriander and nuts. Slice the breast meat and serve withthe rice and warm roasting juices.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken parts with the skin on. Bone-in chicken will yield more flavorful results than boneless chicken.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, ginger, garlic, and green onions for at least 30 minutes will help to infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a dark soy sauce: Dark soy sauce is thicker and has a more intense flavor than regular soy sauce. It will give the chicken a deep, rich color.
  • Cook the chicken slowly: Slow cooking the chicken will help to tenderize it and allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Baste the chicken: Basting the chicken with the cooking liquid during the last 30 minutes of cooking will help to keep it moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This black-skinned chicken slow-cooked in dark soy sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, with a crispy skin and a rich, savory sauce and the addition of shiitake mushrooms just blends perfectly and makes it a more fulfilling dish. Serve it with rice or noodles and a side of vegetables for a complete meal that the entire family will enjoy.
