Instructions

  1. Combine the soy sauce, vinegar, half the minced garlic, and bay leaves. Marinate the chicken thighs in this mixture, refrigerated, for at least 20 minutes. Marinate overnight for deeper flavor.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat and sear the marinated chicken on both sides until browned, then set aside. Reserve remaining marinade.
  3. In the same skillet, sauté the onion and the remaining garlic, then add the reserved marinade, water, brown sugar, and peppercorns, bringing it to a simmer.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer, uncovered, turning occasionally, until the sauce reduces to a thick syrup.
  5. If needed, remove the chicken to thicken the sauce separately, then glaze the chicken with the sauce before serving.
