• 3-1/2 lb. frying chicken, cut into serving pieces, or the equivalent in
  • chicken parts
  • 3 tbsp peanut oil
  • 3/4 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 1 head of garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 2 small dried hot red peppers
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp honey

To make the garlic chicken recipe, first heat oil in a large heavy skillet and brown the chicken well on all sides, adding garlic and peppers toward the end.

Next, add the remainder of the ingredients and cook over a medium high heat until chicken is done and sauce has reduced somewhat.This will take less than 10 minutes.

If cooking both dark and white meat, remove the white meat first so it doesn’t dry out. Watch carefully so the sauce doesn’t burn or boil away.

There should be enough sauce left to serve with the chicken, and the chicken should appear slightly glazed. Remove the garlic chicken to a platter, then reduce sauce if necessary.
