Chicken Marinade

Sauce

Method

Marinate Chicken

  1. 1

    Combine Marinade Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs with soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, cornstarch, minced ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Mix well until the chicken is fully coated.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.

Prepare Sauce

  1. 3

    Mix Sauce Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sugar, rice vinegar, chili paste, and water. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is well blended.

Cook Chicken

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 5

    Cook Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

  3. 6

    Add Sauce

    Pour the prepared sauce over the cooked chicken and stir to coat. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Garnish and Serve

  1. 7

    Garnish

    Once the chicken is cooked and the sauce is thickened, remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
