Book Nineteen: Great Food Without Fuss: Simple Recipes From The Best Cooks edited by Frances McCullough & Barbara Witt

Recipe: Braised Chicken Thighs with Spicy Tomato and Ginger Sauce
Ken Hom



This is great food with little fuss! I say "little" because of the clean-up. As you can see in the photo below I have grease splatters all over - including the floor! All this from one tablespoon oil + what comes naturally from the chicken itself.

The tomato sauce has wonderful flavor. The only drawback to braising the chicken is it softens the skin, and I love crispy skin; which I have to admit I did nibble a bit before braising. Hey...it stuck to the pan!
