Category: Chicken
Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup white wine vinegar
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 dried bay leaves
3 tablespoons arrowroot (or cornstarch)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
lime wedges
In a large nonstick, high-sided skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the pan and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the chicken stock, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves. Whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
Pour the liquid into the skillet with the chicken and bring to a boil, scraping up with a wooden spoon the browned bits that stick to the bottom of the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer, turning the chicken occasionally, for 35 minutes, until cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the cooking liquid and arrange on a serving platter. Discard the bay leaves. Whisk the arrowroot and lime juice into the cooking liquid and bring to a boil. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce over the chicken or serve alongside as a dipping sauce. Sprinkle the chicken with cilantro and garnish with lime wedges. Serve over a bed of rice.
Serves 4-6.
