Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl with the garlic and ginger and sprinkle with the salt. Using your hands, rub the aromatics all over the chicken. If you have time, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, place it in the refrigerator, and allow the chicken to marinate for up to 24 hours.
  • When you're ready to cook the chicken, warm the coconut oil in a large cast-iron skillet or other heavy skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning the pieces occasionally, until deeply browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve warm. Any leftovers can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to a few days and then rewarmed in a 300 degrees F oven or a skillet set over medium heat for a few minutes.

I learned a number of Malagasy recipes after I had been on a mission trip there. This is chicken with garlic and ginger and is pronounced ah-KOO-hoo mee-see sha-kah-mah-LAH-no. This is a common flavor combination and this is a common Malagasy dish. It is cooked with rice, a staple there.
