Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken thighs
- 60 ml Soy sauce
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 15 grams Ginger
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 50 ml Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Clean and pat dry the chicken thighs. Cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, water, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onions to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken pieces. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
Pour the soy sauce mixture into the skillet. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly and allow the sauce to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Lower the heat and simmer for another minute, ensuring the chicken is fully glazed and flavorful.
Garnish with the green onion tops and serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles.
