Super-Easy Black Pepper Chicken
Spice up your weeknight dinner session with this chicken dish with a nice peppery rich flavour.
Ingredients
1 piece | deboned chicken thigh |
1 tablespoon | MAGGI® Oyster Sauce |
1 packet | MAGGI® Hari-Hari Favourites Black Pepper Mix |
30 g | onions, sliced into rings |
30 g | garlic, thinly sliced |
5 tablespoons | oil |
Preparation
-
Debone the chicken thigh and pound the chicken a few times using a meat mallet. Rinse the chicken cleanly but make sure to leave the skin intact.
- In a clean bowl, add in a tablespoon of MAGGI® Oyster Sauce and marinate the chicken in it for 1 hour.
- When the chicken is well marinated, heat up a non-stick pan.
-
In a shallow pan, pour in the oil and shallow-fry the chicken on medium-to-low heat for 15 minutes or until it turns golden brown. This clearly depends on how thick the chicken piece is.
-
After the chicken is cooked thoroughly, remove it from the pan and set it aside.
-
Next, in goes the onion and garlic in the left-over oil. Sauté until fragrant.
-
Then, add in the MAGGI® Hari-Hari Favourites Black Pepper Mix along with 4 tablespoons of water.
-
When the mixture has come to a boil and has slightly thickened, place the chicken into the simmering sauce and braise it for a minute on both sides.
-
Once the sauce created a lovely coating over the chicken, plate it and pour some of the remaining sauce over it.
-
This super-yummy black pepper chicken chop can be served with rice, spaghetti, garden salad, creamy mashed potatoes or French fries.
