1
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan. Saute the finely chopped shallots and freshly grated ginger until golden brown.
2
Transfer the sautéed shallots and ginger to a plate and set aside.
3
In the same pan, add the minced garlic and light brown sugar. Stir continuously on low heat until the sugar melts and forms a thick, caramel-like sauce. Be careful not to burn the sugar.
4
Add the skinless, boneless chicken thighs into the pan, ensuring each piece is well coated with the caramel sauce.
5
Increase the heat to medium-high. Stir and turn the chicken thighs until browned on all sides.
6
Sprinkle the chicken with fish sauce and freshly grounded black pepper, then stir to ensure every piece is evenly coated.
7
Reduce the heat to medium low. Cover the pan and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
8
Return the sautéed shallots and ginger to the pan, mixing well. Garnish with finely chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy your savory and sweet Vietnamese treat!
