Steps
- 01
Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and soak in 240 mL milk, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- 02
Mix 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp pepper, 8 minced garlic cloves, 2 tsp ginger and 60 mL rice syrup.
- 03
Drain and discard the milk, pat chicken dry and do not wash raw chicken. Toss chicken with the soy mixture.
- 04
Heat oil in a wide pan, spread chicken in one layer, reduce to medium heat, cover and cook about 5–6 minutes.
- 05
Uncover and turn chicken, preventing the glaze from burning. When the thickest piece reaches 74°C, add and melt 2 tbsp butter to coat.
- 06
Top with chopped scallions and serve with rice. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and reheat to 74°C.
Before you cook
Marinate in the refrigerator, never on the counter. Do not wash chicken or reuse soaking milk. Cook chicken to 74°C by thermometer. Check milk, soy and wheat allergens.
