- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 6 lices ginger
- 3 scallions cut into 3-inch pieces
- 3 star anise
- 1 cup Shaoxing wine
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator an hour before cooking to bring it to room temperature. Clean it thoroughly inside and out.
- In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the ginger and scallions, cooking until fragrant. Stir in the star anise.
- Pour in the Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
