Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Searing the chicken skin-side down first renders the fat, which enhances the savory umami and eliminates any unwanted gamey smell.
- Using Chinese Shaoxing wine instead of cheongju imparts a uniquely sweet and deep aroma that noticeably elevates the dish.
- Since no water is used, it is essential to maintain low heat so the onion does not burn and its sweet juices are fully drawn out.
Recommended for
- Those who want a special chicken dish that brings out the deep, natural flavors of the ingredients without a single drop of water.
- Those who want to enjoy an exotic yet tender braised dish with the aroma of Shaoxing wine and ginger.
