Thai Grilled Chicken (kai Yang Sanam Muay)

Ingredients

  • 3-5 lb whole chicken (fryer)
  • 3 table spoons pounded garlic
  • 2 teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chicken stock powder
  • 5 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 medium size Chinese parsley
  • 4 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grilled dry red chili
  • 3 tablespoon of vinegar
  • 2 cup glutinous rice (sticky rice)

Instructions

Chop parsley and set leaves aside. Pound the rest of parsley - including roots - with garlic. Set aside 1 tablespoon of pounded garlic for dip sauce. Mix 2 tablespoons pounded garlic, 1 tablespoon sugar, the rest of white pepper, salt, stock powder, and soy sauce in small bowl. Cut chicken lengthwise along its front and spread flat. Pierce skin with fork. Apply ingredients thoroughly, seal in plastic bag, and put in refrigerator overnight. Soak 2 cups of glutinous rice (preferably over night or at least 3 hours). Put steaming screen into medium size rice cooker. Put water below screen level. Put soaked glutinous rice into cooker and start cooking. Loosen rice with fork thoroughly after 12-18 minutes. Continue cooking until auto-switch turns off. Put chili powder, vinegar, the rest of pounded garlic, fish sauce, and sugar in small bowl. Put ingredients in microwave for 1.5 minutes to let sugar dissolve and garlic sap soften. Putting ingredients in saucepan over range works as well. Let sauce cool down and set for 15 minutes. Put chopped parsley leaves on top. Heat oven to 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Put chicken in tray skin side up and stick it in middle-lower shelf. After 25-30 minutes, drain chicken gravy into bowl and apply on chicken skin thoroughly, using brush or spoon. Reduce heat to 400 and put chicken back in for 15-20 minutes, or until skin turns golden brown (watch carefully at this time). Drain gravy again if needed. Spread chili sauce on top of chicken before serving with sticky rice. Or cut and dip chicken in sauce for chicken skin crispy.
