Real Chinese Chicken
List of Ingredients
Marinade:
2 cloves minced garlic
2 tsp. minced ginger root (If you whack it first with
the side of a cleaver, it will mince up ever so nicely.)
1/2 to 1 tsp. five spice powder (according to taste
and available in Chinese sections of supermarkets)
2 Tbs. soy sauce
2 Tbs orange juice or lemon juice
1 Tbs honey
2 tsp. sesame oil (Chinese style)
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper (can be omitted)
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Recipe
Marinade several hours and then bake in marinade, turning once, at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or more depending on thickness of chicken wings.
PS. You might enjoy knowing that one of the cheapest cuts of chicken in China are de-boned chicken breasts. Any idea what the most expensive part is? Chicken feet!
