Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 kg chicken breast
1/2 cup flour
paprika, to taste
ground ginger, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon brown sugar
olive oil (for frying)
2 medium onions, coarsely cut up
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup water
4 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Cut up the chicken into chunks, larger than bite size but not too large.
  • Mix the flour with the paprika, ginger, black pepper and 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
  • Coat the chicken with the flour mixture.
  • Fry the chicken in the olive oil in one layer, turning to brown both sides.
  • You may have to do this in batches, removing the browned chicken to a separate plate.
  • Add some fresh oil to the pot (you can leave in what's in there).
  • Fry the onions, constantly stirring, until caramelized.
  • Add the vinegar (stand back, the vapors can really get you).
  • Then add the water.
  • Keep cooking until the sauce is reduced to a jammy consistency.
  • Add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved.
  • Add the fried chicken pieces and stir to completely coat and heat through.
  • Serve with some plain rice or couscous.
