Copy of Soy-glazed Chicken
  1. Pat your chicken dry on a plate and season it on both sides with salt and pepper.

  2. Heat a large frying pan on medium high.

  3. Add a couple tablespoons of oil and let it get warm.

  4. Once hot, brown the chicken well on both sides, about 8 to 10 minutes total; it’s not going to fully cook through right now, and that’s fine.

  5. Transfer it back to a plate to rest.

  6. Add more oil to the pan, if needed.

  7. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

  8. Add soy sauce, vinegar(s), and sugar and stir to scrape up anything stuck in the pan.

  9. Bring sauce ingredients to a simmer, 1 minute.

  10. Return the chicken to the pan and cook in the sauce, turning once or twice, until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes more.

  11. The sauce will reduce as the chicken cooks and get a bit syrupy.

  12. Transfer chicken to a serving platter and pour the sauce remaining in the pan over.

  13. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and/or scallion and eat right away, preferably with some chili crisp.
