Thai Gingered Chicken CP

 

3 1/2 – 4 Lbs Chicken Pieces ( thighs & drumsticks)

2 Tbs Cooking Oil

1/3 Cup Soy Sauce

2 Tbs Brown Sugar

2 Tbs Water

1 Clove Garlic, minced

1 tsp Ground Ginger

1/4 Slivered Almonds (for garnish)

 

In large skillet over medium heat, brown chicken in oil on both sides. 

Transfer to slow cooker.   In mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar,

water, garlic and ginger; mix well then pour over chicken in crock-pot.

 

Cover and cook on High for 1 hour, turn down to Low and cook for 4 – 5

hours longer.  When done, transfer to serving bowl, then garnish with

almonds.

 

Note:  You can thicken the cooking liquid into a gravy if you wish to

serve it with the chicken, over rice or noodles.   Just use a slurry

made with cold water and corn starch.
