Ingredients

Whole chicken (cut into pieces) 1 (about 500g)

Yellow wine (Shaoxing wine) 400ml

Water 200ml

Angelica root (Dang Gui) 2 slices

Red dates (jujubes) 6 pieces

Instructions

Season the Chicken

Rinse the chicken thoroughly and pat it dry. Rub the salt evenly over the meat and let it sit for 30 minutes to marinate.

Prepare the Herbs

Clean the angelica root and goji berries. Soak the red dates in warm water for a few minutes to soften them up.

Braise the Stew

Place the seasoned chicken in a clay pot or heavy-bottomed pot. Add the soaked herbs, red dates, angelica root, yellow wine, and water. Ensure the liquid covers the chicken.

Simmer

Cover the pot with a lid. Bring the liquid to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat and cook for 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the chicken to rest in the broth before serving.
