Directions

  • Baste some sauce into the chicken. Cover the pan and allow it to simmer for around 25 minutes under low heat. Flip the chicken to cook the other side and continue simmering for another 20 minutes.
  • Baste the chicken with the sauce to make the color even. Continue simmering and basting until the sauce is reduced. If you prefer a dry chicken, continue cooking until the sauce is completely dried.

Notes

  • Aside from the garlic, onions and lemongrass, you may also stuff the chicken with ginger and herbs to infuse more flavors.
  • You may poke some holes on the chicken using a fork before basting to let the marinade sip in.
  • Make sure to remove the chicken stuffing before serving.
  • You can opt to cut the chicken into smaller pieces but it would have no infused flavors from the chicken stuffing.

HOW TO COOK CHICKEN IN SPRITE AND OYSTER SAUCE

You start by preparing the chicken. Just rub the salt and pepper and then put the chicken stuffing. Heat some oil in a pan and gently sear the chicken.

You’ll know it’s a savoury dish when the smell of fried garlic lingers around your house. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce and stir the ingredients. Place the seared chicken back to the pan.

Pour the lemon soda until ¼ of the chicken is covered. Stir the sauce so that the oyster and soy sauce will mix with the soda. Baste some of the sauce to all parts of the chicken. You do not need to add water since the soda already has water in it. The next few steps will be the simmering, chicken flipping and basting. I can imagine how flavourful the chicken will be!

When cooking whole chicken, always check the temperature to make sure that it is cooked thoroughly. Use a kitchen thermometer and poke a lean part of the chicken without touching the bones. If the temperature ranges from 75-80C or 165-175F, then it is fully cooked. If you prefer dry chicken, simmer until the sauce dries up completely. For me, I like it saucy! Transfer the chicken into a serving dish and partner it with hot rice and you will surely make this recipe over and over again! Yum!
