Our Soya Chicken Leg comes two pieces to the order, poached low and slow in a soy master stock seasoned with Chinese spices until the skin turns deep, glossy mahogany. The meat stays silky and moist right down to the bone, and the legs arrive chopped and plated with a carved carrot garnish. At $13.00 it is one of the best value plates on our NE Calgary BBQ counter.
Soya chicken is poached rather than roasted, and that is what makes it different from the other meats on our BBQ counter. The legs are lowered into a simmering soy master stock built from light and dark soy, rock sugar and Chinese spices, then held just below a boil so the meat cooks gently and never toughens. The stock is topped up and carried forward, which is how it gains its depth.
The finished legs are lacquered and dark, with a savoury-sweet flavour that runs all the way through the meat rather than sitting on the surface. We chop them through the bone and plate them with a carrot garnish, ready to eat as they are. Order the two pieces on their own for a quick lunch, or add them to a rice plate for a fuller meal.

"Two legs for thirteen dollars and both were still moist right to the bone. The soy flavour goes all the way through, not just on the skin."

"This is my go-to lunch order. It comes already chopped, so I just add a bowl of rice at home and I am done."

"Beautifully glossy and not too salty. My parents say it tastes like the BBQ shops back in Hong Kong."
