Servings: 2 people
- 4 chicken thighs
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- Spring onion for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
- Salt and Pepper
Soy and Garlic Sauce
- 4 garlic cloves
- ⅓ cup soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp sriracha
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 dash rice vinegar
- Ginger Zest
Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper (don't add too much salt because the soy sauce is salty). In a big pan --- preferably cast iron --- heat the canola oil and cook the chicken thighs for 5 minutes each side until they are golden.
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients for the soy and garlic sauce and pour it over the chicken thighs. Cook for a couple minutes until the sauce thickens.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and thinly chopped spring onions and serve.
