Ingredients

½ cup soy sauce
⅓ cup brown sugar
¼ cup peanut butter
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
2 tablespoons chile-garlic paste
1 tablespoon cornstarch
10 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized cubes
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste

Steps:

Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, peanut butter, hoisin sauce, ginger, garlic, and chile paste in a resealable container. Mix well. Stir in cornstarch. Add chicken to marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a jelly roll pan or rimmed cookie sheet with a double layer of foil large enough to envelop the chicken.
Spread chicken evenly over the bottom layer of foil. Top with the marinade, fold the upper layer of foil on top, and wrap to fully cover chicken.
Roast in the preheated oven until chicken thighs are no longer pink, about 1 hour. Unwrap and sprinkle with cilantro.

THAI PEANUT CHICKEN

Thai Peanut Chicken image

This is a very tasty Asian-inspired dish made with chicken and broccoli in a spicy peanut sauce. If you like it mild, use less cayenne, like it spicy, use more. If you're salt conscious, use low sodium soy sauce.

Ingredients

2 cups uncooked white rice
4 cups water
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into thin strips
3 tablespoons chopped garlic

Steps:

Combine the rice and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until rice is tender. In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
