Chef Wakiya's signature dish, taught to him by his master during his apprenticeship. This melt-in-your-mouth braised Chinese cabbage and chicken wings, infused with the umami of scallops, is a comforting Chinese home-style dish that pairs perfectly with rice. Experience the exquisite texture of chicken wings that fall off the bone and the exquisite tenderness of the cabbage.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2-3 servings)

  • Chinese cabbage Approx. 1/4 head
  • Chicken wings 5-10 pieces
  • Canned cooked scallops 1 can
  • Potato starch slurry 3 tbsp

Seasonings

  • Taihaku sesame oil 3 tbsp
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • Taihaku sesame oil for finishing

Steps

  1. Thinly slice the Chinese cabbage crosswise against the grain. (This is the key!) Cutting the cabbage from the side will make it tender and melt-in-your-mouth when simmered.
  2. Prepare the chicken wings by cutting them at the joints and severing two tendons to make it easier to remove the bones.
  3. In a pot, add the prepared chicken wings (5-10 pieces) and 1L of water. Cover and simmer gently for about 30 minutes. The flavorful broth from the chicken will be used later.
  4. Heat 3 tbsp of Taihaku sesame oil in a frying pan and add 1 can of canned cooked scallops (including the liquid). Bring to a boil.
  5. Once boiling, add the thinly sliced Chinese cabbage (approx. 1/4 head) and mix roughly.
  6. Add the reserved chicken broth from simmering the wings, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.
  7. Remove the bones from the simmered chicken wings.
  8. Finely shred the meat from the deboned chicken wings.
  9. Add the shredded chicken wing meat to the frying pan with the simmering Chinese cabbage and continue to cook for another 6 to 7 minutes.
  10. Once the edges of the Chinese cabbage have softened and it's tender, season with salt (to taste) and pepper (to taste) to achieve a flavor slightly saltier than clear soup.
  11. Gradually add the potato starch slurry (3 tbsp) in several batches, stirring until the mixture thickens.
  12. Drizzle 1 tbsp of Taihaku sesame oil over the top for finishing.
  13. Serve in bowls and enjoy!
