Serves 12
Ingredients
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 (3 pound) chickens, cut into pieces
2 large onion, quartered and sliced
1/4 cup minced garlic
2/3 cup white vinegar
1 ⅓ cups low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons black pepper
2 bay leaves
Directions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken pieces until golden brown on both sides, then remove. Stir the onion and garlic; cook until they soft and brown, about 6 minutes.
Pour in vinegar and soy sauce, and season with garlic powder, black pepper, and bay leaf. Add the browned chicken, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is tender and cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.
