To buy
- 1 pound [450 g] boneless chicken thighs
From your shelf
- 1 cup [240 ml] Hawaiian style barbecue sauce
Staples
- 2 tablespoons oil
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- 1 cup [200 g] rice
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 small onion
- Start rice in 2 cups water with 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt; bring to a boil, then cover and lower heat to gentle simmer for 18 minutes.
- While rice cooks, pat 1 pound boneless chicken thighs dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Mince 2 cloves garlic and dice 1 small onion.
- Set a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, then lay chicken thighs skin side down and cook without moving until the skin is golden, about 6 minutes.
- Flip thighs, scatter diced onion and garlic around them, and cook another 3 minutes while vegetables soften.
- Pour 1 cup Hawaiian barbecue sauce over the chicken and vegetables, reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened slightly, about 8 minutes. Taste and adjust salt.
Note Swap chicken breasts if you prefer; they will cook in the same time. Leftovers keep refrigerated for three days and reheat gently in a skillet. Serve with steamed green beans or a simple cucumber salad to cut the sweetness.
