Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar. Add the chicken pieces, ensuring they are fully coated. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
- Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Cooking Rice
- In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil, add the rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork once done.
Cooking Chicken
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken pieces and sauté until they are caramelised and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth and rice vinegar. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer.
- Once simmering, add the cornstarch mixture slowly while stirring to thicken the broth. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Final Touches
- Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
- Serve the caramelised chicken and broth over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice.
- Top with sliced green onions for an added burst of flavor and freshness.
