About

Everyone loves this dish, from kids to adults. Cook extra chicken as it is just as great in a lunchbox the next day.

Ingredients

Fresh

4 boneless chicken thighs with skin on, about 200 g (7 oz) each

Method

Pierce the chicken skin with a fork; this will help the chicken to absorb the sauce and help to release any excess fat.

Heat a frying pan over medium–low heat. Place the chicken in the pan, skin side down (no oil is needed). The chicken will release some of its fat. Cook for about 9–10 minutes, until the chicken skin begins to crisp. Use paper towel to remove some of the fat if needed.
