Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium carrot, peeled and minced into 1/4-inch cubes
2 large shallots, peeled and minced
2-inch piece of ginger, peeled and minced
4 large shiitake mushrooms, tops only (use the stems for stock or discard), roughly chopped

1
Preheat the oven to 500.
2
Place the oil and butter in a Dutch oven or heavy casserole, and turn the heat to high.

Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
4
When the butter foam subsides, add the chicken, skin-side down, and brown well on both sides, for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning once.

When the chicken is browned, tuck the minced vegetables and ginger and chopped mushrooms underneath the pieces, and dust the tops with 1/2 teaspoon licorice powder and the amchur powder or lemon juice.

Top with the baby carrots or carrot strips.
7
Add the port or wine, and cook 1 minute, then add the stock and transfer the casserole to the oven.
8
Roast 5 minutes, then remove the breast and wing-breast pieces; place them on a warm platter.
9
Roast another 10 minutes, then remove the casserole from the oven and place on top of the stove; return the set-aside white meat to the pot.

Cook 1 minute over high heat, then taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary.
