Instructions: How to Cook Alvin'S Drunken Chicken
- In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, rice wine, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, star anise, cinnamon stick, and black peppercorns. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and sear until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per side.
- Pour the marinade and chicken broth into the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
