  • Cooking oil

Sauce Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce

Directions

  1. Stir the sauce ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
  2. Heat a saucepan over medium heat and add 1-2 tsp frying oil (I use avocado oil).
  3. When the oil is hot, add the chicken legs to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Add 1 tbsp water to the pan. Turn the heat down to medium-low and cover chicken with foil. Cook until the water has mostly evaporated.
  5. Remove the foil and add in the prepared sauce. Flip the chicken to coat fully in sauce, then cook on medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until sauce has thickened.
  6. Remove chicken from pan and garnish with green onion slices. Serve immediately.
