Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds chicken breasts, with bones and skin, cleaned thoroughly but with some of its fat retained, and dried; each breast cut into quarters
2 tablespoons Chinese white rice wine or gin
3 tablespoons double dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon Chinese white rice vinegar or distilled vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
4 cups thinly sliced onions

Steps:

  • Place the chicken pieces in a roasting pan and toss with the rice wine or gin, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, sugar, rice vinegar, and pepper. Put the garlic slices on and under the chicken pieces. Allow to rest for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Heat a wok over high heat for 30 seconds, add the peanut oil, and coat the wok with it, using a spatula. When a wisp of white smoke appears, add the onions. Stir and cook for a minute, lower the heat to medium, and cook for another 3 minutes until onions are soft. Turn off the heat.
  • Spoon the onions over, around, and under the chicken pieces. Place the roasting pan with the chicken and onions in the preheated oven and roast for 30 minutes. Lower the heat to 350°F, turn the chicken over, and roast for another 30 minutes. Turn the chicken over again and cook for a final 30 minutes, basting halfway through. Turn off the heat. Transfer the chicken to a heated platter and serve with cooked rice.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less soy sauce next time.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover rotisserie chicken that I shredded and used in this recipe, and it turned out great! The sauce is also really versatile. I served it over chicken, but I think it would also be g
