  • 6 slices ginger

Instructions

  • Cut your chicken thigh into 2" pieces and set aside, then prep your ginger, garlic, chili and basil and place in a separate bowl.
  • Premix your sauce by combining hot water, shaoxing wine, light and dark soy sauce, msg, sugar, and sesame oil.
  • In a large pot or dutch oven, heat 2 tbsp of avocado oil over medium high heat and fry your ginger, garlic, and chili for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
  • Add your chicken thigh and saute for 2-3 minutes until the chicken has slightly browned.
  • Add your premixed sauce and mix to combine. Bring to a rapid simmer and cover and turn the heat to medium low. Braise for 15-20 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Turn off the heat and add your fresh basil and combine until wilted. Serve over hot rice and enjoy!
