Categories     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Time 6h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped, plus sprigs for garnish
1 piece fresh ginger (about 2 inches long), peeled and cut into thin strips
5 scallions, thinly sliced on the diagonal (1 cup packed)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
4 chicken drumsticks and 4 thighs (about 2 1/2 pounds total), skin removed
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced crosswise
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, stir together soy sauce, sugar, garlic, cilantro, ginger, 1/2 cup scallions, vinegar, coriander, and pepper. Add chicken and carrots; toss to coat. Cover, and cook on low until chicken is tender, about 6 hours. Using a large spoon, skim off and discard any fat from surface of cooking liquid.
  • In a 2-cup glass measuring cup, whisk cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Ladle 1 cup cooking liquid into measuring cup; whisk to combine. Pour into a small saucepan, and bring to a boil; cook until thickened, about 1 minute. With slow cooker turned off, stir in cornstarch mixture. Serve chicken with white rice, and garnish with cilantro sprigs and remaining 1/2 cup scallions.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Follow step 1 (above), using a 5-quart Dutch oven or heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid instead of the slow cooker. Add 1 cup water, and cover. Transfer to oven; cook until chicken is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Proceed to step 2 (above).

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 chicken (about 2kg)
small piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated (peel reserved)
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
3 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tbsp Shaohsing wine or dry sherry
2 tbsp soy sauce
150ml chicken stock
1 tbsp honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 star anise
2 Little Gem lettuces, leaves separated
1 bunch of spring onions, trimmed and finely shredded
½ cucumber, cut into thin strips
1 red chilli, sliced
small bunch of coriander, chopped
50g roasted peanuts or cashews, roughly chopped
cooked rice, to serve

Steps:

  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Sit the chicken in a casserole dish, rub the marinade all over, and put the ginger peel in the cavity. Cover and leave at room temperature to marinate for 1 hr, or in the fridge overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix the stock ingredients in a jug, then pour over the chicken. Roast for 1 hr, uncovered, then baste with the liquid in the dish. Roast for 30-40 mins more, basting every 10 mins, until the chicken is deep brown. Keep an eye on the glaze in the base of the dish - you may need to add a splash of water to keep it from burning.
  • Leave the chicken to rest for 20 mins, then transfer to a board. Skim the fat from the juices, bring to the boil, then turn off the heat. Shred the thigh and leg meat and wrap in the lettuce leaves along with the spring onions, cucumber, chilli, coriander and nuts. Slice the breast meat and serve withthe rice and warm roasting juices.

BLACK-SKINNED CHICKEN SLOW-COOKED IN DARK SOY SAUCE



Black-Skinned Chicken Slow-Cooked in Dark Soy Sauce image

Provided by Elaine Louie

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 large Spanish onion, diced
5 cloves garlic, smashed
1/4 cup Chinese bean paste
2 2- to 2 1/2-pound chickens, head and feet discarded, cleaned and rinsed
1 inch-thick piece of unpeeled ginger, cut into 4 pieces
1 inch-thick piece unpeeled fresh or frozen galangal, smashed
2 Thai bird chilies
1/2 cup wolfberries or 1/4 cup finely diced dried apricots
1/4 cup diced jujubes (also known as hong zao or red dates) or 1/8 cup of dried brown dates, diced
3 cups dark soy sauce
1 cup cola
1 star anise pod
2 cardamom pods
2 cinnamon sticks
1 clove

Steps:

  • Place a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat, and add oil. When oil is hot, add onion, garlic and bean paste, and sauté until onion is tender.
  • Add chickens, ginger, galangal, chilies, wolfberries, jujubes, soy sauce and cola. Stir, and add star anise, cardamom, cinnamon, clove and just enough water to cover chickens. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 45 minutes. Remove chickens, cut into serving pieces, and serve with broth ladled over chicken and steamed rice.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, remove chickens. Cook broth over high heat until it becomes syrupy and glossy, about 20 minutes. If too salty, add a little water. Cut chicken into serving portions, add to sauce, heat through and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are both good choices for this recipe. If you use chicken breasts, you may need to pound them thin so they cook evenly.
  • Use a slow cooker with a lid that fits tightly: This will help to keep the moisture in the chicken and prevent it from drying out.
  • Add plenty of liquid to the slow cooker: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful. You can use water, chicken broth, or a combination of both.
  • Season the chicken well: Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor the chicken. Some good options include garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, chili powder, and cayenne pepper.
  • Cook the chicken on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours: The chicken is done when it is cooked through and tender. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Some good options include rice, noodles, vegetables, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Soy chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The slow cooker does all the work, so you can relax and enjoy your meal.
