Vinegar Chicken


  • salt
  • pepper
  • 2-3 chicken thighs
  • 25 ml garlic
  • 45 ml ketchup
  • 75 ml vinegar
  • 45 ml water

  1. Cut the chicken thighs, skin side away, along the bones to expose the meat
  2. Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper
  3. Starting from a cold pan, place the chicken skin-side down on the pan and cook over high heat for a few minutes, until nicely browned. No fat needed
  4. Cover the pan and cook on low - very low for 20-25 minutes, skin side down
