Description

Dark chicken thigh meat is cooked in a rich soy sauce, garlic, and vinegar mixture, then tossed on the grill until crisp. Serve over rice.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups soy sauce
1 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
3 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs

Directions

1 Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil grate.
2 In a large pot, mix soy sauce, water, vinegar, honey, garlic, bay leaves, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, and place the chicken into the pot. Reduce heat, cover, and cook 35 to 40 minutes.
3 Remove chicken, drain on paper towels, and set aside. Discard bay leaves. Return the mixture to a boil, and cook until reduced to about 1 1/2 cups.
4 Place chicken on the prepared grill, about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and crisp. Serve with the remaining soy sauce mixture.
