Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.5 lb chicken thighs skin on, bone in
  • 1 green onion finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil

Sauce:

  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup honey or brown sugar or cane sugar
  • ¼ cup water room temperature or cold
  • 3 tablespoon soy sauce regular
  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoon rice vinegar or substitute with Shoaxing wine

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients and mix until honey is dissolved.
  2. In a large pan on medium high heat (level 7 on the dial), add vegetable oil.
  3. Once oil is hot, add in chicken thighs skin side down and allow them to sear on each side for 2 minutes.
  4. Pour in the sauce (don't panic if it bubbles). Cover and simmer for 7 minutes. Reduce to low-medium heat (level 3 on the dial) or a rolling simmer.
  5. Flip chicken over. Cover and simmer for another 7 minutes.
  6. Flip chicken over so it’s skin side up. Baste the sauce over the chicken skin. Remove off heat. Note: Cooked chicken should have clear juices or should reach an internal temperature of 165 F inserted at the thickest part of the chicken with an instant-read thermometer.
  7. Garnish with green onions and enjoy with extra sauce served on the side.
