Ingredients

  • 3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1/2 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil

Method

  • Remove as much fat as possible from chicken thighs. Place flour on a plate and roll chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Mix chicken broth, vinegar, five-spice powder, garlic, soy sauce and water together in a small bowl.
  • Heat oil in a wok or skillet over high heat until smoking. Brown chicken on all sides, about 2 minutes. Add sauce and lower heat to medium.
  • Simmer 25 minutes, turning chicken a few times. Liquid should be just at the bubbling stage. The sauce will boil down to a glaze. Serve over rice.
