Direcciones

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the broth, carrots, the 5 scallions, the smashed ginger, the garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, star anise, cinnamon sticks, peppercorns, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, for 20 min.
  2. Add in the sherry and chicken and bring back to a simmer over moderately-low heat, covered. Turn the chicken and simmer, covered, till the chicken is just done, about 5 min.
  3. With a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken, carrots, and star anise to large shallow bowls. Strain the broth and add in the chopped ginger and 2 Tbsp. of the minced scallion. Ladle the broth over the chicken and top with the remaining minced scallion.
  4. This recipe yields 4 servings.
  5. Comments: Chicken breasts poached in a broth flavored with star anise, cinnamon, ginger, scallions, and soy sauce is a Chinese classic. Traditionally you would save, not serve, the broth - it improves each time you use it - but we can never resist serving it with the chicken as a light sauce. If desired, boil noodles separately and add in them to the broth for a meal in a dish.
