One-Pan Roasted Oyster Sauce Chicken & Scallions
Description
The recipe starts by seasoning chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then searing them skin-side down in vegetable oil alongside ginger slices to extract flavor. After browning, scallions are added to the pan before pouring a mixture of Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, and oyster sauce over the chicken and vegetables. The pan is transferred to a hot oven to roast until the chicken cooks through, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the meat.
The cooking method produces golden, slightly crispy skin and juicy meat with the sauce providing a balanced saltiness and depth from the oyster sauce combined with the subtle sweetness of scallions. The ginger adds warmth and fragrance throughout the dish.
This chicken dish can be served over steamed rice or alongside simple vegetable sides to soak up the rich sauce, making it a flavorful main course with minimal cleanup due to the single-pan preparation.
Ingredients
- 8 chicken thighs
- salt
- black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 5 lices ginger (¼-inch thick)
- 10 scallions (washed, trimmed, and cut into 2- to 3-inch lengths)
- ¼ cup Shaoxing wine (60 ml, can substitute other rice wine, or dry sherry)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons oyster sauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Rinse the chicken thighs and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place a large roasting pan over medium high heat on your stove across two burners. Once the pan is hot, add the oil and ginger. Allow the ginger to fry in the oil for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the chicken to the pan, skin-side down, and sear until browned. Flip the chicken and sear on the other side.
- Add the scallions to the pan. Thoroughly combine the wine, soy sauce, and oyster sauce in a bowl, and pour it over the chicken and the scallions. Transfer to the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
