"Big peking duck fan here - this peking chicken isn't quite the same but, nevertheless, makes a great sandwich and does satisfy the craving."

Made as written (using pork) for The Quest 2014. Oddly, ALL approved recipes using hoisin sauce called for already prepared hoisin sauce, so I used my go-to for it - Recipe #312492 by Alskann. I am a Peking duck fan too & you certainly got the flavor we were both after. Peking duck is usually served w/pancakes & cucumber sticks to give an element of texture other than the meat. Perhaps the cucumber sticks, bean sprouts or even snow peas would be good opt adds to give that extra texture. Thx for sharing this yummy recipe w/us.

These are good and different. We used the chicken option which I also think will be very good over rice. I forgot the sesame oil and the green onions, serving this was tomatoes and onions instead. Thanks for sharing!
