Time 6h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped, plus sprigs for garnish
1 piece fresh ginger (about 2 inches long), peeled and cut into thin strips
5 scallions, thinly sliced on the diagonal (1 cup packed)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
4 chicken drumsticks and 4 thighs (about 2 1/2 pounds total), skin removed
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced crosswise
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, stir together soy sauce, sugar, garlic, cilantro, ginger, 1/2 cup scallions, vinegar, coriander, and pepper. Add chicken and carrots; toss to coat. Cover, and cook on low until chicken is tender, about 6 hours. Using a large spoon, skim off and discard any fat from surface of cooking liquid.
  • In a 2-cup glass measuring cup, whisk cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Ladle 1 cup cooking liquid into measuring cup; whisk to combine. Pour into a small saucepan, and bring to a boil; cook until thickened, about 1 minute. With slow cooker turned off, stir in cornstarch mixture. Serve chicken with white rice, and garnish with cilantro sprigs and remaining 1/2 cup scallions.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Follow step 1 (above), using a 5-quart Dutch oven or heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid instead of the slow cooker. Add 1 cup water, and cover. Transfer to oven; cook until chicken is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Proceed to step 2 (above).

Tips:

  • To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in the ginger-soy sauce mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, add an extra tablespoon of cornstarch to the sauce mixture.
  • Serve the chicken and bulgur with steamed vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal.
  • You can use any type of chicken for this recipe, but boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are the best choices.
  • If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven over low heat for about 2 hours.

Conclusion:

This ginger chicken with bulgur is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the bulgur is fluffy and flavorful. The ginger-soy sauce adds a delicious umami flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to become a family favorite.
