Ingredients
- 1 T. butter or 1 1/2 T. extra virgin olive oil
- 10 piece of chicken thighs and drumsticks
- 1 cup soy
- 1/2 cup vinegar
- 1 T. brown sugar or regular sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. basil
- 2 bay leaf (dry)
- pepper to taste
Method
In a large pot, start with adding the butter/oil and browing up some garlic and onions. Don’t burn it. Saute until onions starts to caramelize or brown. Add chicken and cover. Let it simmer until chicken is brown on both sides. An estimated time of 8 minutes or so.
Next, pour in soy, vinegar, basil, pepper, and bay leaves. Cover and let it simmer for 20 minutes to let the chicken cook through.
When chicken is almost done, add the tablespoon of sugar and mix it well.
Serve it with hot white rice and on my plate, I added some fresh mixes. I made it together and chow it down with mostly anything that I eat. If you are interested, here is the ingredients.
