Taiwanese three cup chicken recipe
This dish gets its name from the main sauce ingredients: soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame oil. It's great for dinner, or you can even make it with wings as an appetizer: In a bowl, mix 3 tbsp + 1 tsp soy sauce, 1/4 c rice wine, 1 tbsp sugar, 1/4 tsp white pepper and 2 tbsp water. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a heavy pot over medium heat. Add 6 cloves smashed garlic and a 2 inches sliced, unpeeled ginger. Cook until lightly browned. Remove garlic and ginger and set aside. Increase heat to high. Add 2 lb chicken wings or boneless thighs cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces. Sear 3-5 minutes, then pour in soy mixture. Bring to a boil, then return garlic and ginger to pot. Cover and bring heat to medium low. Simmer until chicken is cooked and sauce is sticky, about 10 minutes for thighs or up to 15 for wings. Add 1 sliced jalapeño and 2 c basil leaves. Increase heat to high and stir well. Turn off heat and drizzle over 1-2 tbsp sesame oil.
