Instructions

  1. Chop chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces or ¼-inch thin strips.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the braising sauce ingredients. Mix in the chicken pieces.
  3. Pour chicken and the sauce into deep plate that is suitable for steaming. Set aside.
  4. Fill a large wok or large pan halfway with water and place a wire rack into the center of it. If you have a bamboo steamer, you can use that instead. Cover and bring to a boil.
  5. Once it reaches boiling point, carefully lower the bowl of chicken onto the wire rack or into the steamer using oven mitts to avoid burning yourself.
  6. Cover and steam chicken for 20-25 minutes on medium high heat until you reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F with a digital instant read thermometer or until juices run clear.
  7. Remove the chicken from steamer with oven mitts and serve!
