AUTHENTIC BLACK BEAN CHICKEN



Authentic Black Bean Chicken image

Fermented black beans are found in Asian markets and once you buy them, they last pretty much forever! Also called salted black beans, they're used in the black bean chicken you order from Chinese take-out and has a much different flavor than the Mexican type of black beans. From chef Fuchsia Dunlop with my addition of some red pepper for color! Also check out my review of Recipe#247607.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb boneless chicken thighs
1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 head garlic, peeled (cut very large cloves in half)
2 1/2 inches piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
4 scallions, green parts only, cut in 1 1/2-inch pieces

1 tablespoon shaoxing wine or 1 tablespoon sherry wine
2 -3 teaspoons dried chili pepper flakes

  • If you don't have tortilla chips, you can use crushed cornflakes or bread crumbs as a substitute.
  • When baking the chicken, place it on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to allow for even cooking and a crispy crust.
  • To prevent the black beans from becoming dry, add a small amount of liquid, such as water or broth, to the skillet before simmering.
  • For a spicier dish, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeño to the black bean mixture.
  • Serve the crusted chicken and black beans with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.
