Hong Kong Style Soya Sauce Chicken Recipe


Ingredients
1 whole chicken
6 clove garlic (skinned and smashed)
Some spring onion (cut long)
3 slices ginger

Seasonings (adjust to your own liking)
3-4 cups water
1/2 cup LKK premium soya sauce
2 tbsp LKK dark soya sauce, 老抽
1 tbsp LKK Oyster Sauce
1 tbsp black thick sauce (chicken rice black sauce) for colouring
2 tbsp hua tiao wine or 1 tsp rose wine
1 tsp sesame oil
1 slices brown sugar (片糖)

Method
1. Clean and wash chicken. Remove head and feet. Set aside
2. Boil water in a pot. Add garlic, spring onion, ginger and all the seasonings. Bring to boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Add chicken, cook chicken 1 side (breast side face down) for 15 minutes and flip to the other side. Cook for 10 minutes and turn the chicken again, off fire. Cover the pot with the chicken inside for 10 minutes. 
4. Remove chicken from the pot and drain the sauce. Chop chicken in pieces, pour some sauces on top and serve hot.

*The timing to cook the chicken is depends on the size of the chicken, mine is cooked for about 30-35 minutes*
**It is very important to use "Lee Kum Kee" brands of soya sauce and oyster sauce, other brands will taste different**
***Sliced brown sugar (片糖) is very important too, other sugar will not be as fragrant as sliced brown sugar***
