Soy Sauce Chicken
Ingredients
Chicken (half or whole)
Sauce
Dark soy sauce (to colour; use sparingly)
Light soy sauce (dominant profile; use liberally)
Sugar (dominant profile; use liberally)
Ginger (Sliced)
Garlic oil (optional)
Directions
Caramalise sugar in a wok
Add dark + light soy sauce
Sliced ginger is added to remove chicken odour.
Add chicken.
Cover wok and braised until cooked. Flipping sides once in a while.
Remove chicken, set aside to cool before butchering.
Thicken remaining sauce until it is very sticky.
Add garlic oil on top for fragrance.
Butcher chicken and serve with sauce.
Garlic Oil
Fry sliced garlic in a pot of oil at medium heat until it is golden brown.
Remove garlic to prevent burning
Note: using a small pot reduces how much oil is needed
Notes
Because chicken is big, a large wok is ideal to cover the whole chicken
If you don’t have a wok cover, a cover made of foil works (very finicky)
