Chicken Char Siew is a flavorful adaptation of the traditional Chinese barbecue dish, originally made with pork. This version substitutes chicken, marinated in a savory blend of soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, and Chinese five-spice powder, delivering a rich, caramelized taste. Typically roasted or grilled until slightly charred, it’s a leaner alternative to the pork-based original while retaining its signature sweet and smoky profile. Chicken is a high-protein, lower-fat choice that provides essential nutrients such as B vitamins and selenium. However, the marinade's sugar and sodium content can be significant, making portion control important for balanced consumption. Popular in Southeast Asian and Chinese cuisine, Chicken Char Siew is often served with rice or noodles, presenting a lighter variation of an iconic dish with a modern, health-conscious twist.
