Lol sorry I used the method of eyeballing the ingredients like my ancestors but I can estimate for y’all
• 1 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tsp dark soy sauce
• 1 tsp oyster sauce
• 2 cubes of red fermented bean curds
• 1 tbsp of the sauce from the bean curds jar
• 1 tbsp shaoxing wine
• 1/2 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 3-4 tbsp of honey or agave syrup or rice syrup
• A pinch of Chinese 5 spice (do NOT over do this)
• 1 tsp of white pepper (or black pepper)
Mix it all up, let the chicken marinate for ideally overnight or at least an hour. I forgot I had this prepped and accidentally left this in the fridge for a couple of days lmao.
Reserve the leftover marinade. Mix it with honey and water. Bring it to a boil then reduce. This is the glaze
Then 375F for 40 min total. Start with the non skin side, glaze that side, bake for 20 min, then flip, glaze, bake for another 20. Give it one last blast for like 30 sec under the broiler for the nice edges. Note that mine are all bone-in thighs so this time is perfect for me. If you’re using boneless, it might be less time.

When I visit my son and DIL I will usually make either char siu or bulgogi (sometimes both, for bao) from scratch. They were amazed the first time that I don’t just buy the sauce. I showed them how easy it is and they were very surprised. My DIL is Chinese and tells me all the time that I’m the whitest old Chinese lady she’s ever met because I cook Asian food better than anyone in her family. Bottom line is, I’m an adventurous cook so if I eat something I like I learn how to make it. If something looks interesting I learn how to make it, etc.
