Description

This is one of my wife's favorite meals. I often serve this chicken with simple steamed vegetables and rice which my son enjoys rolled small, like marbles, so he can grip and chew as he likes... I am always asked for this recipe, so here it is:

Ingredients

2 c sake
0.5 c soy sauce
3 T oyster sauce
2 T hoisin sauce
8 chicken thighs
3 buds star anise
2 tbsp Worchestershire
5 chopped scallions
2 T minced ginger
0.33333333333333 c brown sugar or Chinese rock sugar
toasted sesame seeds
5 whole dried hot chilies
2 cinnamon sticks

Instructions

Lightly brown chicken in a large pan and pour in remaining ingredients. Cover and simmer for 15-17 minutes.

Uncover and reduce sauce to a glaze around chicken. (I usually check sauce for sweetness right when I am 5 minutes from serving, adding a tablespoon of soy if I need to.)

Serve with steamed green vegetables seasoned with sea salt, toasted sesame seeds and plenty of rice. Chow down.
