Ingredients

  • 150 g Chicken Thighs
  • 130 g Leek
  • 20 g Chinese Chicken Broth
  • 10 g Potato Starch
  • Salt To taste
  • Pepper To taste
  • Sesame Oil To taste

Instructions

  • Cut the leeks diagonally into thick slices.
  • The chicken thighs should be butterflied, then held open with a fork to be salted. Also sprinkle on some potato starch and let it sit for a bit.
  • In a frying pan with oil, cook the chicken, first with skin side down. As the chicken begins to become a golden brown, make sure to flip it and cook both sides evenly. Afterwards, add some sake and cover with a lid.
  • Once the chicken is cooked all the way through, take the chicken out and saute the leeks with the leftover oil.
  • Add the chicken broth and 150ml of water, then add enough potato starch to thicken the water mixture.
  • When the onion sauce is done, replace the chicken on top of the sauce and you’re done.

Notes

I tried using Chinese chicken broth for the onion sauce to add some saltiness. I made sure to not add too much leek, but please add as much or as little as you’d like. It’s a good idea to wrap the chicken thighs in aluminum foil after removing them from the frying pan to keep them warm.
