Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 4 cups water
  • Chopped green onions
  • Fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Pat chicken thighs dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Sear chicken thighs skin-side down for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Flip the chicken and add soy sauce, brown sugar, minced ginger, and minced garlic to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth to cover most of the chicken.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until fully cooked.
  5. While simmering, rinse jasmine rice under cold water. In another pot, combine rinsed rice with water, bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes until fluffy.
  6. Optionally thicken the broth by mixing cornstarch with water and stirring into the simmering pot for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Serve chicken over rice with broth ladled on top; garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro.
