Ingredients

– 4 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
– ½ cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons brown sugar
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 inch ginger, grated
– 2 cups chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil

– 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
– Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
– Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

Creating Caramelised Soy Chicken in Garlic Ginger Broth with Rice is easy if you follow these steps:

1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Add chicken thighs and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Prepare Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a saucepan, combine the rice with 2 cups of water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Cook Chicken: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and add to the skillet. Sear chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown.
4. Create Broth: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
5. Finish Rice: Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and let it sit while the chicken finishes cooking.
6. Add Flavors: Stir in sesame oil into the broth, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve: Slice the chicken and arrange it over the rice. Ladle the garlic ginger broth over the chicken and rice.
8. Garnish: Top with chopped green onions and cilantro for an added burst of flavor and color.

By following these steps, you’ll create a dish that’s not only delicious but also visually stunning. The flavorful broth, tender chicken, and fluffy rice unite to create a meal that’s perfect for any home.
