Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 lbs chicken thigh
  • 4 lbs chicken drumstick
  • 1 cup white vinegar or coconut vinegar (See Note 1)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar or coconut sugar (See Note 2)
  • 2 tsp black peppercorns
  • 15 garlic cloves
  • 6 bay leaf fresh preferably
  • 2 green onion sliced thinly, tops

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken pieces in a large container or plastic, sealable bag.
  2. In a bowl mix together the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, peppercorns, garlic cloves and bay leaves. Pour this mixture over the chicken, turning to coat and seal. Refrigerate overnight or minimum 4 hours.
  3. Preheat oven to 300°F.
  4. Place the chicken and marinade in a 13x9" baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour. Uncover, turn the chicken, baste with braising liquid and cook uncovered for another 30 minutes or when chicken internal temp reaches 165°F.
  5. Remove the chicken and keep warm covered with the aluminum foil. Pour the braining liquid in a saucepan and bring to a boil, reduce by half to thicken. Season to taste. Baste and pour this over the chicken when serving with green onions and steamed rice.

Notes

  • To keep it on the "authentic" side I took the time to seek out coconut vinegar, which is key, and was not that big of an effort to find. I went to my local asian market. If you don't want to I'm here to share some substitute options with you. Coconut vinegar has a cloudy, white appearance and a slightly milder taste than apple cider vinegar.
  • Most recipes say to use white vinegar or cider vinegar and sure that would work, but when I looked up substitutes for coconut vinegar I found several options.
  • Substitutes:
  • Regular or brown sugar can be substituted for the coconut sugar if you like.
  • cane vinegar another not found in everyones pantry
  • use 3 parts white vinegar plus 1 part water,
  • use 3 parts white vinegar plus 1 part white wine vinegar
  • use 3 parts white vinegar plus 1 part cider vinegar
