Ingredients
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine chicken, soy sauce, and crushed garlic. Mix well and marinate for at least 1 hour in the fridge.
Heat a large pot over medium heat and add cooking oil. Once hot, sear the marinated chicken pieces on each side for about 2 minutes.
Pour in the remaining marinade and add water. Bring to a boil.
Add bay leaves and whole peppercorns. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes with the lid slightly open.
After 30 minutes, add the vinegar without stirring. Cook for another 10 minutes to mellow the acidity.
Stir in sugar and salt to balance flavors. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Turn off the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
