Ingredients
- 2 to 3 pounds chicken thighs
- 1 cup soy sauce (aka shoyu)
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup water
- 1 Tablespoon garlic (crushed or minced)
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- red pepper flakes (to taste)
Instructions
- Combine soy sauce, sugar, water, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes in a high-sided saute pan over medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved.
- As soon as the sugar is dissolved, place the chicken in the pan. The chicken can be touching but don't over-crowd the pan.
- Heat until the sauce comes to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer.Simmer uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes, turning the chicken over halfway through. The sauce should thicken and reduce as it is cooking.
- Remove from heat. Allow chicken to rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving. Serve with remaining sauce (sauce will thicken more upon cooling).
