Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 whole chicken (about 3 lbs)
  • 3 cloves of garlic (peeled and finely chopped)
  • 2- inch of fresh ginger (peeled and finely chopped)
  • 1 Tbsp of Shao xing wine
  • 1 Tbsp of soy sauce
  • 2 tsp of sesame oil
  • 2 stalks of scallions (finely chopped)

Instruction

  • Pat the chicken dry with absorbent paper towel and place in a large deep-dish suitable for marinating. Mix the rest of the ingredients, except for the scallions in a bowl and then pour it over the chicken and rub the marinade all over the body and also inside the cavity. Cover and let it marinade for about 1 hour, and flip the chicken over halfway of marinating.
  • I use a wok to steam the chicken. You can use a wok or large pot to do so. Steam the chicken in high heat for about 30 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle the chopped scallions over the chicken and steam for another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it cool down a little bit before cutting the chicken into serving pieces.
