Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs, skin side down, and sear until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and brown the other side for an additional 3 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. In the same skillet, add garlic and ginger, and sauté for about a minute until fragrant.

  3. Add red bell pepper, mushrooms, and snow peas to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly tender, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Stir to coat the chicken and vegetables in the sauce.

  5. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it braise for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

  6. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add it to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  7. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the dish for garnish.

  8. Serve the Chinese Braised Chicken and Vegetable over a bed of fluffy rice. Enjoy the blend of flavors and textures in this comforting meal that is sure to bring smiles around the dinner table.
