Braised Chicken Meat with Five Spice Powder Recipe

This is another simple and quickie meal that I prepared for my family. I would marinade the chicken meat right after bringing them back from the wet market and cleaning it. Whenever I want to cook it, I would bring it out from the freezer in the morning to defrost. It is nice to marinade the chicken meat this way because the nice sauce would seep into the chicken.

Ingredients
Chicken Meat, 300gms, cut into bite sizes
Light Soya Sauce, 2 tablespoons
Dark soya sauce, ½ teaspoon
Five spice powder, ½ teaspoon
Pepper, a dash or to taste
Black Vinegar, 1 tablespoon Sugar, 1 tablespoon
Corn flour, 2 teaspoons
Salt to taste
Onions, 1 pc, cut into four

Marinade the chicken overnight with all the ingredients. Put some vegetable oil in a wok and sauté the onions until fragrant. Pour in the marinated chicken and fry until it is cooked. Add a little water if it is too dry. Serve with steamed rice while still hot.

this is a great time saving idea, if I did that, I might actually use some of the meat in the freezer, lol.

I agree that this dish goes well with white rice and a plate of green stir fry veggies.
