Chicken Char Siew

Savory-sweet and garlicky char siew chicken is hard to resist.  These moist and juicy chicken char siew can be served just like normal pork char siew, as topping for noodles or rice, filling for delicious pastries or in stir fries. I made this chicken char siew with my Panasonic Cubie oven. With its Superheated Steam Convection Technology, the char siew came out tender and juicy without a hint of dryness.

Ingredients

  • 1 debone chicken thigh (about 400g)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Char Siu Sauce:

  • 2 pieces Chinese fermented red bean curd (optional)

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp Shao xing wine

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce

  • 1 tsp dark soy sauce

  • 1 tsp five spice powder

  • 1/4 tsp white pepper

  • 1 tbsp sugar

Directions

  • Debone the chicken thighs and keep the skin on.
  • In a bowl, mix all the Char Siu Sauce ingredients together. Stir to mix well.
  • Add the garlic, chicken and the Char Siu Sauce together. Stir to coat well. (You may use half of the Char Siu Sauce to marinate the chicken and save the other half)
  • Preheat oven to 200C. Place the chicken on a aluminium foil. Roast for 20 minutes or until the skin is nicely charred. Slice the chicken into pieces and top with sesame seeds.
