1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
8 cloves garlic, finely minced
One 2-inch piece ginger, finely minced
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon coconut or vegetable oil
White rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until it begins to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, continuing to stir, for another 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, fish sauce and soy sauce. Bring to a low simmer and let cook for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Use a paper towel to thoroughly pat dry the chicken. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the oil. Place the chicken in the skillet skin-side down and let brown without moving it for about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the brown sugar mixture and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits. Return the chicken to the skillet skin-side up. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake, basting the chicken with the sauce midway through cooking, until cooked through, about 20 minutes. For extra-crispy skin, transfer the skillet to the broiler for about 2 minutes. Serve over white rice with sauce.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Time 49m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger
4 cloves finely minced garlic
¾ cup light brown sugar
⅓ cup rice vinegar
⅓ cup fish sauce
2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce, or to taste
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Organic chicken, fresh vegetables, and flavorful spices will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the chicken absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
  • When cooking the chicken, be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but still juicy.
  • The caramel sauce is the key to this dish. Be sure to cook it until it is thick and flavorful. If the sauce is too thin, it will not coat the chicken properly.
  • The crunchy Asian slaw is a refreshing and flavorful side dish. Be sure to use fresh, crisp vegetables and a flavorful dressing.

Conclusion:

Caramel hickory chicken with crunchy Asian slaw is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, the caramel sauce is rich and flavorful, and the crunchy Asian slaw is a refreshing and flavorful side dish. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
