Ginger Glazed Chicken Feet With Brown Sugar And Soy Recipes

STICKY GINGER SOY GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mince the garlic and grate the ginger using a fine holed cheese grater or box grater. In a small bowl stir together the brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, some freshly cracked pepper (about 15 cranks of a pepper mill), and cooking oil. Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or a gallon size zip lock bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken and turn to coat. Cover the chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to a day (refrigerated).
• When ready to cook the chicken, heat a large skillet over medium flame. Once hot, add 1/2 Tbsp cooking oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Add half of the chicken pieces and let cook until well browned on each side and cooked through. Remove the cooked chicken to a clean plate, then repeat with the second batch.
• Once all the chicken has been removed from the skillet, pour the leftover marinade into the skillet and allow it to come up to a boil. Whisk the marinade as it boils to dissolve any browned bits from the skillet. Let it continue to boil until it reduces to a thick glaze*. Turn the heat off, add the cooked chicken back to the skillet, and dredge it in the thick glaze. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

GINGER GLAZED CHICKEN FEET WITH BROWN SUGAR AND SOY

Steps:

• TIP: No prep is necessary for the feet other than washing them, but if you wish you can cut the first knuckle off to remove the toenail.
• Put feet in large stew pot and pour enough water in just to cover them.
• Put lid on and bring to boil then lower to simmer and cook for 1 hour.
• Remove feet and empty broth to use at a different time if desired or just discard it.
• In same pot, combine the remaining ingredients except for cornstarch and water.
• Heat and stir until sugar has melted.
• Return feet to the heated sauce. Bring to boil again, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for another hour or until feet are tender. They should just about fall off the bone when they are done.
