Homemade Chicken Char Siew


Ingredients:
Chicken thigh ~ boneless
5 cloves garlic ~ minced
5-6 tbsp Char Siew Sauce (I used Lee Kum Kee)
Few drops red food color (Optional)

Direction:
  1. Remove the chicken skin.  Marinate the chicken for 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Place the rack in the center of the oven with a tray lined with aluminum foil at the bottom so that the drips will collect on the tray.
  3. Grill/Roast the chicken on a rack in the preheated oven @ 220 deg C for about 40 mins or until done.  Need to frequently glaze the chicken with the glazing mixture & keep turning over every 10-15 mins.
  4. Once done, transfer the drips collected on the tray into a saucepan & heat it up on the stove.   Add some rice wine & stir until it boils through.
Note:
Glazing ~ mix some cooking oil with 1-2 tbsp honey or Molasses with rice wine.
