Chinese Five-Spice Chicken with Soy Garlic Noodles & Broccoli

This is my Chinese five spice chicken with glossy skin, juicy meat and so much umami. The juicy chicken is coated in a delicious sauce that is aromatic thanks to the use of Chinese five-spice! It smells amazing and tastes even better. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner, especially if you've got an air fryer.

But what exactly is this five spice powder, I hear you ask? It's a unique blend of warming spices native to China, typically consisting of star anise, cloves, cinnamon, Sichuan peppercorns, and fennel seeds. The overall effect is a complex and intriguing mix of sweet, savoury, and slightly floral notes.

Mixed feelings about this dish

The chicken was well-flavored and tender, but the rice was soggy and it felt like the dish needed a sauce. When things go slightly wrong like this, I always wonder if I did something wrong. I cooked from chilled, but wondered if the water released from the defrosting was what made the rice soggy? Or will you only get the best experience from this dish if you use a microwave?(which we don't have)

WOW

Very authentic and tasty! Also great to see you used the individual spices and not the mix, I always find those have extra additives and preservatives.
