Steamed Chicken with Salted Fish
Steamed Chicken with Salted Fish Recipe
Besides Hua Tiao/Shao Hsing wine, you can also experiment with other types of hard liquor such as D.O.M, X.O or Brandy. If you don’t have black fungus, you can use other types of mushrooms or even fresh ones.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 chicken cut to small pieces
- 3 slices ginger sliced thinly
- a small handful of dried black fungus soaked in hot water, drained and cut to strips
- 20g dried salted fish* diced
* note about salted fish: For best results, fry the diced salted fish in some oil or roast them in the oven, until they become golden brown and crispy.
(A) Marinade
- 1 tbsp sesame oil reduce the amount if you want less “heaty”
- 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
- 1/2 tbsp ginger juice
- 1 tsp light soy sauce
Directions:
- Combine chicken with marinade (A) in a deep plate. Refrigerate covered for at least an hour if possible.
- Scatter sliced ginger, cut fungus and diced salted fish over the chicken.
- Steam at high heat for about 30-40 minutes, until the chicken is cooked. Drizzle some soup over the chicken and serve with white rice.

Hi again
Finally tried the recipe n the family loved it. But I must say I was stumped at one point. The marinade for the chicken- do u cook it together w the chicken or did u strain it? I wasn’t sure so I strained most of it. Pls clarify. I didn’t have that much gravy at the end.
Thanks!
I don’t have salted fish but I added a very small splash of fish sauce (the viet kind with the 3 crabs on the label) to the marinade which added the perfect amount of savory flavor!
hello may i know where did you get the 3 crab brand fish sauce?
from Singapore? Have you tried NTUC?
