Directions: |
Directions:Remove all fat from chicken thighs and cut into 1 1/2 inch chunks. Cut around chicken bone and leave the bone whole. In a large bowl, add 3/4 tablespoon sugar, fish sauce, black pepper and mix with chicken chunks and bone.
In a medium pot, dissolve 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar in olive oil over medium-low heat, being careful not to burn. After a few minutes, the mixture will turn a dark caramel color; immediately stir in onions and chicken. After 4-5 minutes, add lemongrass, five spices. oyster sauce and chili peppers.
Reduce heat to low, cover pot and braise at a low simmer for 18-20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Stir the chicken every 5-7 minutes. The juice from the chicken will release and increase the volume of the sauce. Adjust seasonings to taste and serve over jasmine rice and a side of steamed vegetables. |
