Thai-Style Tamarind Glazed Chicken

Ingredients 0/11

Step 1

Combine the soy sauce and flour in a large bowl until they’re well combined. Toss the chicken pieces in the mixture, making sure each one is nicely coated. In a separate bowl, whisk together the water, fish sauce, brown sugar, and tamarind paste until the sugar dissolves and everything is smooth.

Step 2

Heat some oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the garlic, chili pepper, and ginger, letting them cook for a minute or two until fragrant. Take the chicken out of the soy-flour mixture and add it to the pan, stir-frying for a couple of minutes to get it lightly browned.

Step 3

Pour in about half of the tamarind sauce and keep stir-frying until the liquid mostly evaporates. Then add the rest of the sauce, lowering the heat a bit, and let it simmer gently. Cook everything together for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring now and then, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your liking.
