Directions
Start off by cleaning the chicken thoroughly and rubbing it with salt all around. Let the chicken sit for 15 minutes.
Rinse your chicken under cold running water to get rid of excess salt.
Place the chicken in a pot with enough water to submerge it completely. Add slices of ginger and scallions.
Bring this to a boil and then simmer gently for 30-40 minutes, until the chicken is cooked.
Once done, let the chicken cool and then cut it into bite-size pieces.
In a separate bowl, combine all the ingredients for the sauce.
Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Drizzle this sauce over the slice chicken just before serving.
If you want, you can garnish the chicken with chopped scallions or fresh coriander.
Serve this scrumptious Shantung Chicken warm with steamed rice.
