Categories     dinner, weekday, roasts, main course

Time 1h

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup light soy sauce
1/4 cup peanut oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon Sherry
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon finely grated ginger
2 teaspoons 5-spice powder

Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 3 minutes before serving.

SOY ROAST CHICKEN WITH GINGER AND SPRING ONION



Soy Roast Chicken With Ginger and Spring Onion image

A beautiful Chinese-flavoured roast from Ross Dobson's "Chinatown" book. This was perfect, with dark roasted skin over juicy flesh and a beautiful dressing - plus it's fun to hear the dressing sizzling when you pour the hot oil onto it! A very easy, foolproof roast - I rarely can roast chickens well in my dodgy over, but this one was perfect. Ideally put the chicken into marinade the night before roasting it.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 5/8 kg) chicken (3 lb 8oz)
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine (shao xing)
1 teaspoon caster sugar
3 tablespoons chicken stock
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely shredded
4 spring onions, thinly sliced on the diagonal (scallions)
2 tablespoons peanut oil

  • Rinse and dry chicken. Combine the dark soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil and rub the mixture all over the chicken. Place the chicken in a large bowl and refridgerate, uncovered, for a few hours or overnight; turn the chicken occaisionally.
  • Preheat over to 200°C (400°F). Line a roasting tin with baking paper. Put the chicken in the tin, breast side up, and roast for 20 minutes. Turn the chicken over and cook for another 20 minutes. Turn the chicken once more so that it is breast side up again and cook for 30 minutes or until golden brown and juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a skewer.
  • Remove and allow to cool slightly then cut the chicken up Chinese style and arrange on a serving platter. (Or just cut into 10 pieces - legs, wings and breasts cut into 3).
  • Put the light soy, rice wine, sugar and stock into a small suacepan and heat gently for 2-3 minutes. Pour the sauce over the chicken, then scatter with the ginger and spring onions.
  • Wipe the saucepan dry with paper towels, then put the peanut oil and remaining teaspoon of sesame oil in the pan over high heat; when it reaches smoking point, carefully pour it over the chicken, which will cause the ginger and spring onion to sizzle. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN WITH ORANGE AND ONION



Chicken With Orange and Onion image

In this recipe, adapted from my mother, Annette Gertner, an orange, pith, skin and all, provides a bittersweet counterpoint for tangy onion to season and dress a whole, broken-down chicken that's browned on one side, then baked. Worcestershire sauce binds the flavors with a good amount of umami, while some bits of orange and onion paving the chicken skin caramelize in the oven and enrich the pan sauce.

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     poultry, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 orange
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 medium-large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 (3 1/2- to 4-pound) frying chicken, cut in 10 pieces
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup dry white wine

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Cut orange in half and juice it. You should have at least 2/3 cup of juice. Add Worcestershire sauce. Set aside. Cut orange peel, with pith, into 1-inch pieces. Place orange peel and onion in food processor and pulse to chop fairly fine, or chop both together by hand. Spread half this mixture in a baking dish large enough to hold the chicken snugly in a single layer (a 9-by-13-inch pan should suffice).
  • Using a whisk or fork, mix ginger, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper (to taste) in a shallow bowl. Season the chicken with it, then dredge chicken pieces in flour to coat only the skin side. Heat butter in a large, heavy skillet on medium high. Brown chicken on skin side and transfer, skin side up, to the baking dish on the bed of orange and onion.
  • Pour orange juice, Worcestershire sauce and wine into skillet. Cook on medium for 2 to 3 minutes, scraping up any residue in the skillet. Stir in reserved minced chopped orange peel and onion. Pour over and around chicken. Bake for about 45 minutes, basting a few times, until dark meat juices run clear when pierced with a knife. Serve directly from the baking dish or transfer to a platter and serve.

SOY SAUCE CHICKEN



Soy sauce chicken image

Make a homemade version of soy sauce chicken (see yao gai), a classic Chinese dish. This recipe has a less labour-intensive method that you can do at home

Provided by Thy Lundkvist

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1kg skin-on and bone-in chicken thighs (6-7 thighs)
1 tbsp rapeseed oil
4 spring onions, 3 cut in half, 1 finely sliced on an angle, to serve
thumb-sized piece of ginger, grated
3 star anise
2 bay leaves
240ml light soy sauce
2 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
2 tbsp Shaoxing rice wine, or Chinese rose wine (or use sherry)
3 tbsp dark brown sugar
1 tbsp cornflour mixed with 1 tbsp water
cooked jasmine rice and steamed greens (we used broccoli and pak choi), to serve

Steps:

  • Season the chicken with salt and set aside. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over a medium heat, add the halved spring onions, ginger, star anise and bay leaves. Stir-fry for 5 mins until fragrant and the spring onions turn slightly golden.
  • Pour in the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, Shaoxing rice wine, 2 tbsp of the sugar and 480ml water. Turn the heat up to high and bring the liquid to the boil.
  • Slide in the chicken thighs, skin-side down, arranging them in a single layer. Add water if needed to just about cover the chicken.
  • Turn the heat down low, cover the wok or pan and simmer for 35 mins. Turn the thighs over and cook covered for another 10 mins.
  • Remove the chicken to a plate. When the thighs are cool enough to handle, remove the bones and slice into pieces about 1cm thick. Arrange on a serving dish.
  • While the chicken is cooling, strain 150ml of the braising liquid into a small pan and discard the solids. Put the pan over a medium heat and just before it starts to boil, add the cornflour mixture and remaining brown sugar. Once the sauce reaches your desired thickness, remove from the heat. (It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.) Pour it over the sliced chicken or serve in a bowl on the side for dipping. Garnish with the sliced spring onion. Serve with jasmine rice and steamed greens, or vegetables of your choice.

Tips:

  • Use a whole chicken: A whole chicken is more flavorful than just breasts or thighs. It also cooks more evenly.
  • Use dark soy sauce: Dark soy sauce has a richer flavor than regular soy sauce. It also adds a beautiful color to the chicken.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly.
  • Roast the chicken until the skin is crispy: The skin should be golden brown and crispy. This will help to keep the chicken moist.
  • Let the chicken rest before carving: Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken.

Conclusion:

This chicken roasted with onions and soy sauce is a simple but flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your chicken spicy, sweet, or savory, this recipe is sure to please.
