In the South Arm Community Kitchen, Jane Duo made a Chinese chicken dish. She calls it special chicken but I think it’s more proper to call ti Star Anise Chicken. We decided to make some Chinese food upon the request of Blanca and other non Chinese members. They specifically requested to learn how to stir fry bok choy which I will cover later.
This Star Anise Chicken is another very homey Chinese chicken dish. It is flavours with star anise, ginger, soy sauce and sugar.
Ingredients
- A whole chicken, cut into pieces or just drumsticks or wings.
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 inches ginger, sliced
- 4 star anise
- salt to taste
- soy sauce
- cooking wine
- sesame oil
Jane pre-marinated the chicken with some soy sauce, cooking wine and sesame oil.
Instructions
This reminds me of my grandma’s cooking back in Malaysia – she made the best home cooked meals. My sister has some of the recipes documented on her blog – http://www.mum-mum.info .
hi, it would be great if there was a print feature for this.. i would like my helpers to make this – and having a printed recipe version would help.
Hi Garrison: You can print this recipe directly from the browser. It is formatted to print without the sidebars and other irrelevant info you see on the screen. Print and let me know if the format is what you want. Suanne and I debated long about the format (she wants the pictures removed while I say we should not).
Great! I printed this with the photos – though I switched it to b/w only just so my helpers have a visual reference. Thank you again
