Chinese Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce





3-4 servings


30 min 20 min prep





For the Stir-Fry





1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (skinless boneless breast substitution ok)


6 tablespoons cornstarch

1 cup frozen peas and carrots


cooking oil


hot steamed rice





For the Sauce





1/4 cup oyster sauce


1 teaspoon dark soy sauce


1 teaspoon black pepper

Note: This recipe calls for boneless thigh meat, which is preferred, but I tried using breast meat and the result was fine also.


Mix together sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.


Cut chicken into a small dice, about 1/4-inch.


Heat 1-2 cups peanut or other cooking oil in your wok.


Place cornstarch in a small bowl and begin to dust chicken pieces, shaking off excess.


Fry in hot oil in small batches until crispy and golden, about 2-3 minutes; drain.


Remove oil from wok and discard.


Heat 1 tbsp oil in wok and stir-fry onion about 1 minute; add peas and carrots and cook another 30 seconds.


Add sauce mixture to wok along with chicken pieces and stir to coat everything evenly.


Serve at once with hot steamed rice.

Gradually whisk in both stocks. Boil until liquid is reduced to 1 1/2 cups, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Add vinegar and pepper. (Sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)


Position 1 rack in top third of oven and another in bottom third; preheat to 375掳F. Toss potatoes, 1 tablespoon oil, garlic and rosemary in large bowl. Arrange potato wedges, rounded side down, on large baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside.





Season chicken lightly with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 6 tablespoons oil in heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken halves, skin side down; cook until very brown, about 15 minutes. Using tongs, turn chicken over; cook 5 minutes longer.





Place potatoes on top oven rack and transfer skillet with chicken to bottom rack. Roast potatoes and chicken until cooked through, about 45 minutes. Rewarm sauce. Cut each chicken half into 2 pieces. Arrange chicken and potatoes on platter. Serve with sauce.
