Instructions

  1. Debone the chicken thighs, keeping the skin on. Add the cooking wine and soy sauce to the chicken, and stir to combine well.
  2. Add all the ingredients for the Sauce and whisk to combine well. Set aside.
  3. Heat a skillet and pan-fry the chicken skin side down. Turn it over and pan-fry both sides until browned. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Add cooking oil to the skillet and sauté the garlic until slightly browned. Return the chicken to the skillet, followed by the Sauce.
  4. Turn the heat to low and let the sauce cook until it reduces slightly. Top the chicken with parsley and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You may cook the chicken without removing the bones. You can follow my post and video on " How to Debone Chicken Thighs ." You may also use boneless and skinless chicken thighs or breasts for this recipe.
