Weekend Menu #88: Kicap chicken

I learnt this recipe from The Malaysian Women's Weekly. The recipe was Black Soy Chicken (Ayam masak kicap).


I found the taste was good and in my 2nd attempt, I did make a slight adjustment to the recipe to suit my taste.

The original recipe called for sliced chicken breast but I have tried few times using chicken thighs. 

Ingredients:
400g sliced chicken breast
Black soy sauce
Salt
Sugar
Cooking oil
1 big onion sliced
3 minced garlic
Tomato sauce
Water
Parsley

Methods:
1. Marinate the chicken with 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp salt.
2. Heat up about 4 tbsp cooking oil in a wok. Toss in garlic and onion and saute till fragrant.
3. Add in the chicken and stir fry for 5 minutes.
4. Add in 2 tbsp tomato sauce, salt and sugar to taste. Add in about 50ml water and let it simmer.
5. Dish out and garnish with parsley.

  7. I prefer chicken thigh too. I dont like chicken breast as the meat can be very dry and tough.

  8. I no longer buy magazines, but when I was younger my mother would always try out new recipes from the Woman's Weekly. She'd have pages of them torn out and kept in stacks.
