Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except chicken in a Dutch oven or heavy pot. Stir to incorporate.
- Using a fork, poke holes everywhere on all sides of the chicken pieces. Be sure not to skip the towel drying. Add chicken to the pot. Sprinkle a thin layer of table salt lightly over the chicken. Stir to coat chicken in sauce.
- Bring to a boil and immediately drop down to medium-low heat. Cover pot and cook for 1 hour, occasionally stirring/turning the chicken with a wooden spatula so that all sides are braised in the sauce evenly.
- If desired, garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions. Serve warm.
