I personally prefer char siu chicken (<em>Chinese BBQ chicken, &#21449;&#28903;&#40481;&#32905;<\/em>) as its skin creates so much flavour.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aromatic and smoky with a balance of saltiness and sweetness, it is absolutely finger-licking good! And it&rsquo;s surprisingly easy to cook so it&rsquo;s stress-free and novice-friendly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to how I cook <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/chinese-bbq-ribs\/\">Char Siu Ribs<\/a>, Today&rsquo;s recipe introduces two ways to cook two different cuts of chicken: roasting chicken thighs in an oven and air-frying chicken wings in an air fryer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/air-fried-and-oven-roasted-char-siu-chicken-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"oven roasted Char Siu chicken thighs and air fried chicken wings\" class=\"wp-image-15624\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Both ways involve two simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Marinate the chicken with sauces and spices.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook in three stages between which you flip over the chicken and brush sauce over.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ingredients\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Ingredients<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although I&rsquo;m using chicken thighs and wings for today&rsquo;s recipe, please feel free to choose other cuts, such as leg quarters, drums, if you wish. Chicken breast would work but it&rsquo;s not preferable. Remember to adjust the cooking time slightly based on the thickness of the meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prepare chicken thighs, I remove their bones but keep the skin on. For chicken wings, I chop each piece into three sections so they can be easily arranged inside the air fryer. I suggest you discard the wing tips since they tend to burn (use them to make chicken stock instead).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To marinate 450 g\/ 1 lb of chicken, you&rsquo;d need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>4 tbsp char siu sauce<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tbsp oyster sauce<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&frac14; tsp <a href=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/five-spice-powder\/\">Chinese five-spice powder<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&frac12; tsp chili powder, optional<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3 cloves garlic, sliced<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5 slices ginger<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>To achieve the best taste, it&rsquo;s worth the effort to search for char siu sauce (&#21449;&#28903;&#37233;). Several Chinese brands produce this special sauce with Lee Kum Kee (&#26446;&#38182;&#35760;) being the most popular one. You should be able to find it in most Chinese\/Asian stores as well as major online shopping platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chili powder isn&rsquo;t required in traditional char siu recipes. I add it for a hint of spiciness that pairs very well with the sweetness of the dish. Omit it if you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&rsquo;d also need a little honey (or golden syrup) which doesn&rsquo;t go into the marinade but is used for brushing during cooking. Its thick consistency helps the sauce to stay on the meat and it adds an extra shine to the finished dish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-marinate\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">How to marinate<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/marinating-chicken-in-bags-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"chicken with marinade in two plastic bags\" class=\"wp-image-15622\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I like using resealable (zip-lock) plastic bags to marinate char siu chicken as all pieces can be evenly in contact with the sauce. Remember to squeeze out as much air as possible before you seal it. Keep in the fridge to marinate for 6 hours (overnight is even better).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-roast-in-the-oven\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">How to roast in the oven<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You&rsquo;ll need a deep baking tray fitted with a wire rack. Pour in hot water (lower than the rack) then place the marinated chicken thighs on the rack (skin side facing up). Are you wondering what the water is for? During cooking, some of the sauce will drop. Without water underneath, it will burn quickly thus creating smoke and smell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A fan oven (convection oven) works the best for char siu chicken. Preheat it at 200&deg;C\/390&deg;F. If using a conventional oven, increase the temperature to 220&deg;C\/425&deg;F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/brushing-sauce-on-chicken-thigh-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"brushing sauce over chicken thighs\" class=\"wp-image-15644\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Pop the chicken in and leave to roast for 10 mins. While waiting, mix about 2 tbsp of the marinade with 1 tsp of honey (syrup). Take out the baking tray when time is up. Flip over the chicken and brush some marinade honey mixture (check if there is enough water in the tray. Top up if necessary).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>Put the chicken back into the oven. Cook for a further 5 mins then take out. Flip over again and brush with the honey mixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now switch your oven to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thekitchn.com\/kitchen-basics-how-to-use-your-112585\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">grilling\/broiling function<\/a> at the highest temperature (If you have a separate grill oven\/broiler, remember to preheat beforehand). Place the chicken nearer to the heating element on the top. Leave to cook (with the oven door slightly ajar) for 2-4 mins until the skin becomes golden with some charred spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redhousespice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/char-siu-chicken-thighs-in-baking-tray-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Char Siu chicken thighs on a wire rack\" class=\"wp-image-15625\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#128718;Note:<\/strong> During this step, it&rsquo;s very important that you watch closely and check the doneness to avoid burning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-air-fry\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#4d8682\" class=\"has-inline-color\">How to air fry<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on my experience, air frying delivers a slightly better result for this char siu chicken recipe (and faster too).

Place the chicken wings in a single layer over the crisper tray. Cook for 4 mins then flip over all the pieces and brush on some sauce (mix 2 tbsp of the marinade with 1 tsp of honey).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue cooking for another 4 mins. Then flip over again and brush with the sauce.
