Sichuan Mala Mouth Water Chicken 四川麻辣口水雞 is a classic dish with tons of aromatics. Making this vibrant Sichuan dish is easy at home, just like in Chinese restaurants, only better! This addictive spicy poached chicken is addictive, juicy, and sweet with a deeply savoury taste!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole chicken
  • 3 tbsp salt
  • 1 bunch green scallion, julienne
  • 4 slices ginger, julienne

Mala Chili Oil Soy Sauce

Instructions

  1. Wash and clean the whole chicken.
  2. Pat dry or air dry.
  3. Rub salt all over the chicken.
  4. Stuff the chicken with green scallions and ginger.
  5. Set steam convection oven at 400F and steam the chicken for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove the chicken from the oven after it is steam cooked. Rest and let the chicken cool completely. Slice the chicken and place it on your serving plate.

 

While the chicken is cooking, you can prepare the sauce.

  1. In a sauce bowl, add Fragrant Peppercorn Oil, red chili oil, finely chopped garlic, steamed fish soy sauce, black vinegar and sugar. Mix well.
  2. Pour the Mala Chili Oil Soy Sauce over the sliced chicken as much as you want.
  3. Let the chicken chill and marinate in the refrigerator at least 20 minutes until you are ready to serve it. The flavours develop better over time.
  4. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Depending on how spicy your preference is, you can also add bird’s eye chili or more red chili oil. However, I do not suggest making the Sichuan Mala Mouth Water Chicken too spicy because it will overpower the chicken’s delicious natural flavours.
  2. After the chicken is cooked, opt to remove the neck and head and bottom.
