Ingredients
4 chicken thighs (bone-in)
½ cup low sodium soy sauce
½ cup apple cider vinegar
3 bay leaves
3 cloves garlic, minced
12 peppercorns, crushed
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
¼ cup water
1 cup chicken broth
1 ½ cups rice
3 cups water
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
⅓ cup shredded sweetened coconut, minced
½ cup parsley, minced
4 scallions, chopped
Kosher salt ( Adobo Loco uses Hawaiian Salt )
Preparation
Step 1
In a large bowl or flat dish, combine soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, peppercorns, brown sugar and bay leaves with chicken. Marinate for at least an hour or overnight.
Step 2
When ready to cook, swirl a bit of olive oil in a pan. When the oil is hot, lay chicken thighs down, leaving marinade in the dish. Brown chicken on both sides, approximately 2-3 minutes on each side.
Step 3
Remove chicken from the pan and set aside. Pour in marinade and chicken broth and cook until it begins to boil.
Step 4
Once boiling, add chicken again and cover. Cook for about 10 minutes.
Step 5
Whisk 1/4 cup water with cornstarch and add to chicken. Turn chicken pieces over, cover again and cook until juices run clear (approximately 6-9 minutes).
Step 6
For rice, set 3 cups of water to boiling. Sprinkle a little salt into the water. When water begins to boil, add rice and cook according to directions. Once done, toss with scallions, parsley, ginger and coconut.
Step 7
Serve chicken over chicken and drizzle with a little sauce.
