Instructions

  1. Crush the garlic with a pinch of salt and mix it in a bowl with the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, lime juice and pepper.
  2. Finely slice the onion and add it to the marinade with the chili powder.
  3. Cut the chicken into pieces of similar size, put them in the marinade, mix well and cover. Let it marinate for at least 2 hours in the fridge, ideally overnight.
  4. Drain the chicken, reserving the marinade. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Sear the pieces for 3 to 4 minutes per side until nicely golden, then lower the heat.
  6. Pour in the remaining marinade, cover and simmer for 15 minutes, turning the pieces, until the sauce thickens and caramelizes.
  7. Check that the meat is cooked through (clear juices, no pink near the bone), then serve hot with the rice.

Variations and tips

On the barbecue. Grill the drained pieces over medium coals for 10 to 12 minutes, brushing them with marinade each time you turn them.

With what you can find here. If white wine vinegar is missing, replace it with cider or rice vinegar.
