Ingredients :

thighs, legs and wings of two 1-kg. chickens
1 head of garlic
1 large white onion
2 tsps. of salt (herbed salt is great)
3 tsps. of chili garlic sauce
2 tsps. of hoisin sauce
3 tbsps. of powdered lemonade
2 tbsps. of powdered salabat
2 tsps. of tapioca or corn starch
2 c. of cooking oil
chopped greens (parsley or onion leaves) for garnish

Cooking procedure :

Cut the chicken into serving size pieces.

Peel and finely mince the garlic. Peel and finely slice the onion.

Heat a fryer. Pour in the cooking oil and heat until it starts to smoke. Fry the chicken pieces over high heat just until lightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl.

Pour off the cooking oil until only about two tablespoonfuls remain. Reheat the oil. Saute the garlic and onion until fragrant. Return the chicken pieces to the fryer. Add the chili-garlic sauce, hoisin sauce, salt, powdered lemonade and powdered salabat. Add about two cups of water. Stir to blend. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes.

Disperse the starch in 1/4 c. of water. When the chicken is done, turn up the heat. Pour in the starch solution, stirring as you pour. Cook until the sauce thickens. Turn off the heat and add the chopped greens. Toss a few times before serving.

    This recipie sounds great. I just wanted to confirm though that you are using pre-sweetened lemonade powder and not unsweetened. 3 tbsp would be quite a bit of unsweetened, and would make the recipie very tart. But since I’ve never cooked with powder, I’m not certain.
