This recipe taste better with pork, but you can also do it with chicken.  Chicken turns up dryer and harder as it does not have fats in between the meat, while pork (if you get the shoulder cut, 五花肉) has streaky fats in between the lean meat.  However, you can still do it with chicken if you dislike pork.
The picture shows the version with chicken.

Ingredients

1. 6 Chicken drum stick or chicken thigh, or 500gms of shoulder cut pork (五花肉)
2. 5 garlic
3. 3 tablespoon oyster sauce
4. 3 tablespoon sugar
5. 1 tablespoon chinese rice wine (花雕)
6. 1 tablespoon sesame oil
7. dash of ground pepper

Method

1. Do not peel the garlic, just wash the whole garlic.
2. Season the meat with all the ingredients for 30 mins, including the garlic. 
3. Heat up a thick based steel cooking pot (not too hot, just when water droplets start to evaporate and dry up will be just nice).  Thick based pots do not burn the food that easily as it distribute the heat evenly.
4. Put in the garlic and the meat in the pot, lay them out nicely.  Do not pour in the seasoning left in the bowl yet.  You should hear slight sizzling sound as the pot is slightly hot.
5. Cover and cook for 15 mins with very small flame.
6. Open the cover, and pour in the remaining seasoning gravy, and turn up the flame slightly (but still small), flip the meat over, cover and cook for another 20-30 mins (flipping the meat every 5 mins).  Cook till the gravy is almost totally dried up into a sticky gravy.
7. Slice the pork.  Serve. 

This is a traditional Fu Zhou (hock chew 福州) dish.  Hong Zao 红糟 (red vinasse) is the remains of the fermented glutinous rice and red yeast rice for making red rice wine.   I think you can get this in supermarket, but I use home made ones as my mom made the red rice wine at home.  (I can post the recipe here, but I must say I have not made the wine myself).  Many friends have told us that my mom’s Hong Zao taste so much better compared to those from the supermarket. 

This version I introduced here is a little wet with thick gravy.  You can cook it to be a little more soupy, and can be served with rice noodles 面线 (mee sua).

Ingredients

1. 1 chicken (or equivalent of chicken parts, eg 6-8 drum sticks or chicken wings)
2. 3 cm section of ginger
3. 2 shallots
4. 2 garlic
5. 4 tablespoon hong zao (红糟)
6. 2 tablespoon sugar
7. 1/3 cup rice wine or hua diao (花雕)
8. 1/3 cup water
9. 1 teaspoon salt
10. 1 tablespoon light soya sauce
11. 4 tablespoon cooking oil

Method

1. Peel the ginger, shallots, garlic and chop into small pieces.
2. Wash and chop the chicken into chucks pieces.
3. Using medium heat, in a pot (or wok or pan with cover), add cooking oil and chopped ginger, shallots, and garlic and sauté till fragrant. 
4. Add in the hong zao and stir fry till fragrant of wine is in the air.  Be careful to use low to medium heat as it may burnt.
5. Add in the chicken, salt, sugar, soya sauce and continue to stir fry for 1-2 mins. 
6. Add in the wine and water, mixed it, and cover and simmer using low heat for 10 mins.  Open, stir to allow the gravy to coat the chicken, cover and simmer for another 10 mins. 
7. To have more kick in the alcohol fragrant, after cooking pour in another 2-3 tablespoon of rice wine or hua diao.
8. Serve hot.

To make the soupy version, in step 6, you add in about 3-4 bowls water to your liking.  You just have to add more salt to taste.  You may also add in pre-soak shitake mushroom in step 5.
