I usually cook chicken thighs with bones for Christmas, changing the seasonings every time. This butter and soy sauce seasoning is very popular so I make chicken dishes with it for our usual dinner as well. I usually use boneless chicken thighs when they are on sale.

During Step 4 and 6, cover the frying pan with a lid to cook through the chicken. Adding sliced onion rings when you cook the chicken would be nice too. Recipe by Ri-karu

Steps

1

Trim the excess fat off the chicken. Make slits in the thick parts so that it cooks through more easily. Use your kitchen scissors for doing this.
2

Salt and pepper Step 1.
3

Heat some oil in a frying pan and add the garlic.
4

When the garlic sizzles, place the chicken pieces with the skin sides down. Put the garlic on top of each piece of chicken and Cover with a lid.
5

Combine the ingredients marked with ★ while cooking the chicken. If the butter is not soft enough, move the butter around at step 7 to melt it.
6

After the skin sides have browned, turn over the chicken. Clean the excess fat from the frying pan with paper towel and then Cover the frying pan again.
7

Add the ★ into 6 and cook for a few more minutes. Flip over the chicken and put with the skin sides down again to allow the chicken pieces to absorb the ★, then turn over the chicken again. Turn the heat off.
8

If you are worried that the chicken is not cooked through, leave the lid on and steam the chicken with the residual heat for a while.
9

Transfer the chicken onto a serving dish. Garnish with some vegetables. Pour the remaining sauce from the frying pan over the chicken. Put the garlic on top of the chicken. This is tasty but optional.
