Peking chicken

This easy chicken takes after the classic Peking Duck.

Typically, this dish is made with duck, but I don’t know where to find full ducks in East Grand Forks unless I go down by the river, so this is my version with chicken! The key components are juicy meat (which I get from steaming it with beer) and a glossy, sticky-sweet skin thanks to an overnight dry brine and a five spice-spiked hoisin glaze.

If you love Peking Duck, give the chicken version a try! This Peking Chicken recipe is flavorful and cooked to perfection in the slow cooker.

This easy version of a classic Chinese dish is short on work but long on taste. Pass out the chopsticks and enjoy homemade Peking Chicken. Yes, the flavors of Asia are as close as our own kitchens!

Serve this crispy-skinned, exceptionally moist roast chicken like you would a Peking duck: with Chinese pancakes, sliced scallions, cucumber, and hoisin sauce.

This is a dish we were served one night on one of the Princess Cruise ships. Tender, with a wonderful flavour. Of course when they served it, it was "dressed to the nines". When I make it at home, I serve it with rice and a vegetable. ;) This is also great served in a wrap. NOTE: For those thinking of substituting Splenda for the sugar, please read the review posted by Oolala on Feb 11/09. Thanks Oolala for the heads up.
