Do use as good chicken as you can buy - it makes a big difference here. I used organic free-range chicken thighs, and it was absolutely delicious. I made it again with slightly inferior chicken and it wasn't half as good. So do opt for the good stuff - it will be well worth it, I promise!

Ingredients

Caramel Chicken

Serves 3-4

500 g Chicken thighs, deboned

Corn starch

2 tbsp Neutral oil

1 Yellow onion, finely chopped

1-2 Carrots, thinly sliced

2 cloves Garlic, minced

2 tbsp Brown sugar

2-3 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

1 tsp Worcestershiresauce

Black pepper

Salt

Preparation

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Coat them lightly in corn starch. Heat the oil and fry the chicken until it's cooked through, and slightly crispy on the outside. Remove to a plate.

Add more oil if you need to, and fry onion and carrot on fairly high heat for one minute. Add garlic, sugar, vinegar and worcestershiresauce and cook for a few minutes until the sugar has melted. Add the chicken to the pan and stir until it's well coated. Season with some black pepper and salt if you wish, and serve it with rice.
