Ingredients

  • a few slices of ginger
  • 1 coarse chopped green onion
  •  a few cloves of garlic
  • a pinch of peppercorn
  • 1 tablespoon Broad Bean Chili Paste (郫县豆瓣)
  • 1 tablespoon Lao Gan Ma (老干妈) chili paste
  • 3 tablespoon salted black bean (豆豉)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation Time: 15 minutes (with overnight marinate time)
Cooking Time: 35  minutes
Servings: 4

Cooking Steps
1. Get 1.5 lb. chicken wing, 1 lb. leg quarter, marinate with 2% salt in the fridge overnight for best result. If you are in a hurry, you can skip this step.

Tip:
  • Chicken wings and leg quarter are my favorite parts of the chicken. You can use any parts of the chicken of your choice.
2. Rinse off salt from the chicken wings and leg quarter, cut into the joints of the wings and leg to make small chunks.
3. Heat a non sticky wok, place the wing and leg pieces evenly onto the wok, no overlaps, cover and use medium heat to pan fry for 15 minutes, or until the bottom side turns golden brown.
4. Flip the wings and leg pieces to pan fry the other side for 10 minutes or until the bottom side turns golden brown.
5. Push the wing and leg pieces to one side of the wok, add the ingredients to the other side of the wok:
  • a few slices of ginger
  • 1 coarse chopped green onion
  •  a few cloves of garlic
  • a pinch of peppercorn
  • 1 tablespoon Broad Bean Chili Paste (郫县豆瓣)
  • 1 tablespoon Lao Gan Ma (老干妈) chili paste
  • 3 tablespoon salted black bean (豆豉)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
Tip:
  • Since the chicken has been marinated with salt overnight, and the chili paste, the salted black bean all have salt in it, the soy sauce amount is reduced to 1 tablespoon only. 
6. Stir fry the above ingredients for about 3 minutes to let the fragrance come out.
7. Stir fry the wing/leg pieces and the rest of the ingredients evenly for 5 minutes or so.
