Add a photoBe intrigued when you’re served a mysterious looking transparent packet. Upon opening it, you would’ve discovered a tasty-seasoned deep-fried chicken.
Paper-wrapped chicken is a popular Chinese dish that is enjoyed throughout China, Hong Kong, Singapore etc. Once the wrapped chicken pieces are deep-fried, the marinade caramelized into the meat & the result is..... savoury, fragrant tender chicken parts.
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp oyster sauce
- 4 slices young ginger, shredded
- 1/2 tsp grated young ginger
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cooking wine
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 sheets grease-proof paper
Directions
- Cut chicken into parts. Mix all the ingredients & marinade the chicken for at least an hour.
- Wrap the chicken in envelope style: Cut the paper into even square pieces & place a piece of chicken on the paper.
- Bring the bottom flap up over the chicken. Fold the left side over, then the right, so that one is overlapping the other.
- Bring the top flap down & tuck it in the opening to seal the package.
- When the oil is ready, slide the packages in but do not overcrowd the wok. Deep-fry the packets until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Drain on paper towels & serve them hot.
