MOM'S STICKY CHICKEN FROM 1972



Mom's Sticky Chicken From 1972 image

My Mom always served this cold at our family picnics, but misplaced the recipe for over 40 years. She recently found it and shared it with me! Finally! This was my favorite food as a kid, and I have searched every recipe site, but haven't found it! So I am posting it here for YOU! I made this for a potluck thinking I would serve it cold as my childhood memories remember, but it was SOOOO good hot that I stuck it in my slow cooker to keep it warm throughout the potluck! Everyone asked for the recipe! It was a HIT! You can keep in a slow cooker on Warm/Low for 3 to 4 hours!

Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds cut-up chicken
1 tablespoon garlic salt, or to taste
2 eggs
2 cups cornstarch
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1 cup white sugar
½ cup vinegar
¼ cup water
¼ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce (such as Kikkoman®)
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)

Steps:

  • Rub the chicken with garlic salt on all sides. Allow to rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour in refrigerator.
  • Beat the eggs well in a shallow dish; place the cornstarch in another shallow dish. Dip each piece of chicken into beaten egg and roll in cornstarch until thoroughly coated. Shake off excess cornstarch.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cook the chicken, a few pieces at a time, until the crust is golden brown, about 5 minutes; drain on paper towels.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil. Place the chicken into the baking dish so the pieces touch each other.
  • Stir together the sugar, vinegar, water, ketchup, soy sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until the mixture comes to a boil and the sugar has dissolved. Pour the sauce over the chicken, coating thoroughly with sauce.
  • Bake the chicken in the sauce until the juices run clear, basting with sauce every 10 minutes, for 40 to 50 minutes. Turn the pieces about halfway through baking. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Provided by Linda Larsen

Categories     Entree

Time P1DT28m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1 to 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients except the chicken in a shallow baking dish and stir until the sugars dissolve.
  • Add the chicken and turn to coat well.
  • Cover the dish tightly with foil and chill in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
  • When you are ready to eat, transfer the chicken and the marinade to a large heavy nonstick skillet.
  • Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 8 to 13 minutes, moving each piece around with tongs occasionally.
  • Check the breasts for doneness (160 F on an instant-read thermometer ) and remove to a shallow pan as soon as they test done.
  • Cover the cooked chicken and place in a warm oven to keep warm.
  • Increase the heat to medium when the chicken is all cooked and removed from the pan, and cook the marinade remaining in the skillet until syrupy, stirring occasionally at first, then stirring constantly as the mixture starts to thicken. This should take about 4 to 7 minutes total.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet, coat it with the sauce, and serve sticky chicken immediately - with lots of hot cooked rice and napkins!

Nothing beats sticky chicken with barbecue sauce. Start in the oven to make sure it's cooked properly, then grill over hot coals for that lovely BBQ flavour

Provided by Lulu Grimes

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 50m

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 chicken thighs and 4 chicken drumsticks, skin on
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp cider vinegar
4 tbsp light brown soft sugar
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
75ml apple juice
1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the chicken in a roasting tin, season well and cook for 40 mins or until cooked through. Either carry on with the recipe or cool and chill. This step can be done up to two days ahead.
  • Put the sauce ingredients in a pan and bring to a simmer, then keep cooking until it thickens a little and looks shiny. Use straight away or cool and chill. The sauce will keep for a week in the fridge.
  • Heat a barbecue until the coals are glowing white hot. Brush the chicken pieces all over with the sauce and barbecue them on each side until they are browned and sticky, then brush once more with the sauce. Don't worry about cooking them through, as they are already cooked. If you want to cook them indoors, coat them in the sauce and grill on a medium heat on all sides.

BEST STICKY CHICKEN WINGS



Best Sticky Chicken Wings image

For this recipe I strongly suggest to use fresh not frozen thawed wings as frozen will hold in too much water --- you may use 2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic in place of garlic powder but the fresh garlic tends to burn while cooking, the choice is up to you or you may use both the powder and fresh garlic, the butter will firm up only slightly when chilled but will melt and blend in with the other ingredients when baked --- plan ahead the wings need to marinate a minimum for 8-24 hours, overnight is better -- these wings are delicious!

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts work best for this recipe, as they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Make the marinade ahead of time: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be. You can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours, but even 30 minutes will make a difference.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, make sure to leave enough space between each piece so that they can brown evenly. Otherwise, they will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat: This will help to create a crispy, golden-brown crust on the outside of the chicken.
  • Reduce the sauce until it is thick and syrupy: This will give the chicken a delicious sticky coating.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Sticky chicken goes well with rice, noodles, vegetables, or salad.

Conclusion:

Sticky chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a new chicken recipe, give sticky chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
