Sweet Soy Chicken
Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh ginger
  • 5 pounds bone-in chicken thighs with skin
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
1
Acquire the necessary components.
2
Melt sugar, soy sauce, water, garlic, and ginger in a large stockpot over medium heat; blend until sugar is fully incorporated.
3
Introduce chicken thighs into the pot and initiate boiling. Continue to cook, periodically rotating the chicken with tongs every 5 minutes, until a thick, dark sauce forms and the chicken is fully cooked through, with no pink color remaining at the bone and juices flowing freely, approximately 35 minutes. To verify doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer close to the bone; it should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove the pot from heat and allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
4
Transfer the cooked chicken thighs to a serving platter; garnish with chopped green onions.
