Ingredients

Directions

Season the chicken thighs with the Asian seasoning.

Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning, until brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. With tongs, transfer to a plate. Lower the heat to medium and add 1 cup of the green onions and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add the ginger and cook for 30 seconds. Add the stock, water, soy sauce, wine, vinegar, cinnamon and star anise and bring to a boil. Lower the temperature and simmer for 20 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, cover, and braise over medium-low heat until tender, about 45 minutes.

Transfer chicken to a serving platter. Increase the heat to medium, add the cornstarch slurry and cook, stirring, until the sauce is thick and shiny, about 5 minutes.

To serve, spoon the rice into the center of each of 4 large plates. Arrange 2 thighs on the rice and spoon the sauce over the chicken. Garnish with the remaining 1/4 cup of green onions.

    A professional chef wrote this recipe? Really? "Asian Seasoning" is an ingredient? This dish has been around for a century, yet he somehow manages to screw it up. Amazing.

    I was disappointed in this recipe. The chicken wasn't very tasty; the sauce lacked a bit of lustre and the flavor got sickening after the first few bites.

    Had to be a little careful of salt with this dish but once that was figured out it was excellent
