Soy Sauce Chicken (3 servings) Recipe from Rasa Malaysia Ingredients: 3 chicken legs

Method

2-inch ginger (skin peeled and lightly pounded) 4 cloves garlic (lightly pounded) 2 stalks scallions (cut into 2-inch lengths) 2 star anise 1 cinnamon stick (about 2-inch length) 1 dried honey date 1 cup soy sauce 1/2 cup dark soy sauce 1 tablespoon Chinese rose wine (preferred) or Shaoxing wine 3 dashes white pepper powder 4 oz. (113 g) rock sugar 4 cups water

Add all ingredients (except the chicken) into a deep pot and bring it to boil on high heat for 15 minutes. Add the chicken quarters into the pot and boil over high heat for about 10 minutes. Lower the heat to simmer for about 30 minutes. Turn off heat and let the chicken steeped in the soy sauce mixture for a few hours to soak in the flavor. Dish out the chicken quarters, chop into pieces and serve immediately (Soy sauce chicken is usually served cold or at room temperature.)

Note: The soya sauce mix is great for braising hard boiled eggs and tofu the next day, after all the chicken is gone!
