Ingredients
- 14 ounces (400 grams) chicken thighs
- 1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 tablespoon white wine
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
-
Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and then season lightly with salt.
-
Combine the maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha, white wine and ginger in a bowl and stir together.
-
Add the chicken to a room temperature non-stick pan in a single layer with any bits of fat facing down, and then put it over medium high heat. This gives the fat a chance to render out so you don’t need to add any extra oil.
-
Once the chicken is browned on one side, flip each piece, and brown the other side.
-
Add the sauce, and turn up the heat to high. Bring the sauce to a boil, tossing the chicken occasionally to coat evenly with the sauce as it thickens.
-
The chicken is done when there’s no sauce left in the pan. Garnish with cilantro and serve with rice.
