Chinese BBQ Chicken

Step 1

Place Marinade ingredients in a ziplock bag or bowl and mix to combine.

Step 2

Add chicken and mix to coat. Marinade for 3 – 24 hours.

Step 3

Optional: Cut chicken into bite size or large pieces and thread onto skewers. Use 1 skewer for small pieces, 2 for large, like pictured in post.

Step 4

Heat half the oil in a heavy based skillet over medium high heat, or BBQ on medium (if using grill side, brush oil on bars).

Step 5

Remove chicken from marinade (RESERVE for basting) and place in the skillet - cook in 2 batches, don't crowd the pan. Cook for 4 minutes then turn.

Step 6

Use the Marinade to baste the cooked side of the chicken. After 3 minutes, turn the chicken over so the basted side is now cooking again - cook for 1 minute.

Step 7

Baste the chicken, then turn again and cook for 45 sec - 1 min.

Step 8

Transfer chicken to a plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
