Sticky Chicken

Every home has their own sticky chicken recipe. This is one of ours, specifically my mum's one. I have no idea how she came up with this recipe but its a cracker. Its sticky, sweet, salty, a bit sour and super garlicky! All the best things in a sticky chicken recipe.

Un/fortunately its also Vietnamese so its got fish sauce in it. You have to put it in a hot pan and it stinks up the house. I don't know what the ratios are, you just do.

Sticky Chicken

Uses: Delicious chicken for dinner, fumigation.

Ingredients:

Oil
Chicken wings/drumsticks
Fish sauce
Sugar
White Vinegar
Minced garlic

Instructions:
1. Shallow fry your chicken at a medium heat in oil, until it is this brown. Pat dry and place aside.



2. While you're waiting for your chicken to cook through and brown, mince up some garlic. Set aside.
3. Mix up at least 3 tablespoons of sugar, vinegar and fish sauce together. It should taste a lot like nuoc mam cham.
4. Brown your garlic in a large saucepan. Throw the sauce on top, avoid the fumes and when its starts bubbling like this, coat your chicken in it. Toss rapidly to ensure a good coat.


5. Serve immediately in all its garlicky goodness. No pics cause I ate them all already.
