Ingredients
- 6 chicken drumsticks or bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
- 3.5 cups Yukon gold potatoes peeled and chopped
- 1 medium carrot peeled and chopped
- 1 small onion chopped
- 3 cups water or chicken/beef/vegetable stock
- 2 green onion chopped
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Sauce:
- 2 tablespoon Regular soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce or sub with vegetarian stir fry sauce
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ½ tablespoon sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper or white pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients. Set aside.
- In a large pot over medium high heat, add cooking oil followed by onions. Fry until translucent.
- Next add chicken drumsticks and allow them to brown a bit on each side.
- Throw in peeled and chopped potatoes and carrots, let them fry for a couple of minutes.
- Add sauce, followed by water or stock. Mix everything together. Bring to a boil and then reduce to medium heat. Simmer for 20 - 25 minutes covered, or until potatoes are fork tender, stirring occasionally. If you want a very thick stew sauce, remove the lid and simmer over medium heat for the same time, stirring occasionally.
