Sticky Chicky image

My kids love this sweet and sour chicken served with rice. The recipe calls for marinating the chicken for a day before cooking. You can do this, but personally, I think it the flavor overpowers it if soaked that long if you are using skinless boneless breasts. I just cook it with the sauce.

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar (or cider vinegar)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup sugar
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
3 -4 lbs chicken pieces (I use breasts with skin removed)

Steps:

  • Combine vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, garlic and ginger in a large zip bag with the chicken pieces.
  • Seal and turn several times to coat chicken pieces.
  • Put in refrigerator for a day.
  • The next day, put chicken and marinade in large heavy skillet or dutch oven.
  • Over medium heat, bring the marinade to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet and simmer for 15 minutes, turning each piece of chicken occasionally.
  • Preheat oven to 200°F.
  • Uncover and continue to cook the chicken over low on the stove top, turning the chicken occasionally.
  • When the chicken is done (juices run clear when pierced with a fork), put the chicken pieces on a platter, cover it with foil and keep warm in the oven.
  • Turn the heat up to medium and cook the sauce in the skillet until it is syrupy and caramelized, stirring frequently.
  • This will take about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, turn the heat back to low so you don't overcook it.
  • Return chicken to the skillet, coat it with the sauce and serve immediately.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I can see how it would be a hit with people who like sweeter dishes.

I've tried many sticky chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The glaze is sticky, flavorful, and caramelizes beautifully.

I made this for my picky eaters and they all loved it! Even my husband, who usually doesn't like chicken, went back for seconds.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but the end result is worth it. The chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender and the glaze is finger-licking good.

Great recipe! I added a bit of garlic and used honey instead of brown sugar, and it was a hit with my family. Highly recommend!

This chicken turned out amazing! The glaze was flavorful, sticky, and coated each piece perfectly. The chicken itself was juicy and cooked through without being dry. Will definitely be making this again!
