Steps:
- Chicken:
- Combine garlic, ginger, citrus juice, soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar in a medium bowl. Place chicken halves in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in marinade. Seal bag, pressing out any air. Chill at least 12 hours and up to 2 days.
- Place rack in top third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Pat chicken dry with paper towels; season lightly with salt.
- Roast chicken on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet until deep brown and cooked through, 30-40 minutes.
- Dipping sauce and assembly:
- Bruise lemongrass stalk by lightly crushing with a rolling pin. Bring lemongrass and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and let sit until very fragrant, 8-10 minutes; strain lemongrass infusion into a large measuring glass.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Toast shallots, scallions, chile, and garlic, tossing occasionally, until dark brown in spots, 8-10 minutes. Let cool. Remove skins from garlic and coarsely chop garlic with shallots, scallions, and chile.
- Add garlic, shallots, scallions, chile, and ginger to lemongrass infusion. Stir in fish sauce, lime juice, and sugar.
- Using a sharp knife, remove peel and white pith from pomelo; discard. Working over a medium bowl, cut along sides of membranes to release segments. Squeeze juice from membranes into bowl; discard. Tear segments into large pieces. Mix into dipping sauce.
- Transfer chicken to a platter, spoon some dipping sauce over, and top with cilantro. Serve with remaining dipping sauce alongside.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best for this marinade.
- Make sure the chicken is fully coated in the marinade: Use a large bowl or resealable plastic bag to marinate the chicken, and make sure the chicken is completely submerged in the marinade.
- Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight: The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Baste the chicken with the marinade while it cooks: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Soy sauce marinade is a great way to add flavor to chicken. It is simple to make and can be used for a variety of dishes. Whether you are grilling, baking, or pan-frying chicken, a soy sauce marinade will help to make it more flavorful and delicious.
