Braised chicken leg with green onion


This braised chicken leg tastes so wonderful. I love the strong aroma of green onion, it's so... special.

Preparation:

Rinse chicken legs well and marinate them in the mixture of dark soy sauce and salt.

Cook:

(1) Heat wok or skillet under high power;

(2) Lay a large bunch of green onion at the bottom of hot wok or skillet;

(3) Lay chicken legs on green onion with skin side down. Chicken skin and green onion are both browned by the fat of chicken, the mixed aroma develops -- smells great!

(4) Turn chicken legs over, let the other side be browned.

(5) Pour marinating sauce into the wok or skillet, sprinkle 2 tbsp of sugar over the skin of legs, cover and let cook for 10 minutes under medium power;

(6) Turn legs over, cook for another 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 F;

(7) Increase heat to medium high, condense sauce until legs are evenly covered with thick sauce and only clear oil can be seen left in the wok or skillet;

(8) Drain fat from legs and transfer cooked legs to plate.

Believe it or not, the taste of "dark onion" is also amazing.
