Roast Prawn Sauce Chicken

Prawn Sauce Chicken is one of the famous dish in "煮炒" literally translate to food stall that offer ala carte dishes that prepared upon order placement. Prawn Sauce Chicken is deep fried but the oil that used to fry the Prawn Sauce Chicken will not be reusable due to Prawn Sauce stench in the oil. In order to reduce such wastage, I decide to roast the Prawn Sauce Chicken instead of deep fry it. The result is uniquely tasteful as the fried version. It doesn't have the oily feeling while retaining the crispiness of the fried version.


Roast Prawn Sauce Chicken

• Prawn Sauce Chicken Powder (Available in all supermart)
• 4 Boneless Chicken Thighs
• Mirin

 Add in the mirin into the chicken thigh to remove the gamey smell. Add in the prawn sauce powder ensure the chicken thighs are evenly coated. Take care not to add to much as the powder contain significant amount of salt. Leave it to marinate overnight to allow the prawn sauce to infuse into the chicken thighs.

Before you roast the chicken thigh, heat up the frying pan with oil and sear the chicken thighs both side for about 3 mins. Place the chicken thigh in well oil oven tray and covered with foil to ensure that chicken remain succulent during the roasting the toaster oven.

Place it in the toaster oven and toast it for 30mins. After that, remove the foil and drain the sauce that accumulate on the oven tray. Put it back into the toaster oven without the foil and grill it 10mins till the skins turn brown and cripsy, Then you're ready to serve it with rice or noodle of choice.
