Much like chicken feet, chicken neck is enjoyed in parts of Asia- Braised in a flavorful aromatic sauce then stir fried in it's drippings. It's great with beer or as a twice-cooked Adobo, or added to fried noodles, or enjoyed as is like dim sum chicken feet.

Ingredients

  1. About 20 pcs frozen chicken neck, pre-cleaned
  2. 2large bay leaves
  3. 3 Tbspsoy sauce
  4. 1 Tbspoyster sauce
  5. 3 Tbspwhite vinegar
  6. Halfa head of garlic, smashed and torn apart
  7. Chinese cooking wine
  8. 5cloves
  9. Ground pepper
  10. A fewpepper corns
  11. Salt for rub (optional)
  12. 2 TbspCooking oil

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    In a pot heat oil and sauté garlic pieces.

  2. 2

    Rub chicken lightly with salt, all around (or skip this if cutting down on salt or if your soy sauce is super salty). I used frozen, so it's clumped together and I just rubbed salt around. Add to the pot.

  3. 3

    In a controlled pour, pour chinese cooking wine over the chicken pieces. Cover and cook a couple minutes in medium heat.

  4. 4

    Without stirring, add the soy sauce, oyster sauce and vinegar. Drop in the bay leaves, peppercorn and cloves. Sprinkle ground pepper all around. Do not stir yet- just cover and cook a few minutes to thaw.

  5. 5

    Without stirring still, gently separate the frozen-now thawed chicken neck pieces, each to lay on the sauce. Cover and bring to a boil.

  6. 6

    Once boiling it should look like the picture, swimming in juices, lower heat a bit and continue cooking.

  7. 7

    When u can no longer smell the vinegar, and instead smell the aromatics, now u can stir with a spatula. Cover and continue cooking.

  8. 8

    Stir every few minutes until the brown colored sauce has absorbed/evaporated like in the picture. It's now cooking in it's own oil.

  9. 9

    Increase heat and stir fry in it's drippings until popping. Enjoy as is or use in another dish. :)

  10. 10

    Options:
    -To make Twice-Cooked Adobo, shallow fry in another pan with oil.
    -Chop and add to a fried noodle dish with veggies.
    -Dip in batter and deep fry to a crunch.
