1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Make and share this Chinese Boiled Chicken with Onions - Chow Yow Gai recipe from Food.com.

Provided by albasque

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (3 lb) chicken, cleaned
2 bunches green onions
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup peanut oil, heated to smoking point

Steps:

  • Fill a large kettle with water and bring to a boil. (An 8-quart pot two-thirds filled with water works great for a 2 1/2 to 3-pound bird.)
  • When the water boils, place the whole cleaned chicken into it. When the water stops boiling, take the chicken out.
  • Cover the pot and when the water again boils, place the chicken back in the pot. Cover the pot and turn off the heat. Leave the chicken in the pot and the pot on the burner. After one hour, the chicken is done. Remove, and cool.
  • Debone the chicken and tear the meat into small strips.
  • Place them on a large platter.
  • Clean the green onions, and split each onion down the middle. Then cut them up into 1/2-inch pieces and place over the mound of chicken.
  • Pour the soy sauce and the sesame oil over the chicken.
  • Pour the salt over the onions.
  • When you are ready to serve, pour the hot peanut oil over onions and chicken.
  • Toss like salad and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken thighs are the best choice. They are juicy and flavorful, and they cook quickly.
  • Use a good quality onion: Sweet onions are the best choice for this recipe. They have a mild flavor that will not overpower the chicken.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and onions, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and the onions from caramelizing.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The chicken will be juicy and flavorful, and the onions will be caramelized and sweet.

The combination of tender chicken and melt-in-your-mouth caramelized onions in this Chinese Chicken with Sweet Onions dish from Menu of Recipes is a harmonious blend of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. The secret to this dish is in the simplicity of the ingredients and the careful attention to the cooking process.
