Baked Emperor's Chicken


Walking into my favorite oriental store one Saturday afternoon, I picked up a packet of spices that that have dangling on top of their freezers. Emperor's Chicken is a blend of Chinese spices and pepper which intrigued me. I think I ate this in a restaurant in Singapore before... but the memory was vague.

You can stuff your whole chicken with celery, carrots and potato but I chose to use chicken thighs in bone. The preparation was easy! Rub spices all over the chicken and baked it in an oven at around 200 C for 30-40 minutes.



Stir fry some broccoli and DaDuh! A meal is served!

  1. Emperor's Chicken? Sounds mew to me. Not sure if I manage to find the spice here.
    Was it based without covering up the chicken?
