Vietnamese Style Baked Chicken Thighs Food

VIETNAMESE STYLE BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the marinade ingredients. Place the chicken thighs in a large ziplock bag. Pour in the marinade and let it marinade for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F and set oven rack to middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet. Place the marinated chicken thighs, skin side up, on top of the wire rack, making sure to let excess marinade drip off. Discard the marinade. Bake until the thighs are cooked through and no longer pink on the inside, about 35 minutes. Garnish with lime slices and cilantro. Serve and enjoy!

VIETNAMESE-STYLE BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place thighs in a large zipper-lock bag. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar, ginger, chili-garlic paste, lime juice, lime zest, garlic, cilantro, and oil. Pour marinade into bag with chicken, seal bag, and toss to coat well. Let chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) and set oven rack to middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Remove chicken from bag, allowing marinade to drip off, and set on wire rack skin side up, making sure to leave space between thighs. Discard marinade. Bake until thighs register 155 to 160°F (68 to 71°C) on an instant-read thermometer, about 35 minutes. (Be sure to measure temperature in the center of the thickest part of the thighs, but not directly against the bone.) If chicken skin is not brown and crisp enough by the time the thighs are cooked through, turn on oven broiler and broil until browned and crisp, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn the skin. Transfer chicken to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with lime slices and cilantro, then serve.

VIETNAMESE-STYLE CARAMELIZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and add to the skillet; cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Remove and discard 3 tablespoons rendered fat from the skillet; reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic, shallot and ginger and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the coconut water, fish sauce and brown sugar and stir until the sugar is melted. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens (the bubbles will begin to slow as it thickens), 4 to 5 minutes.
• Return the chicken and any collected juices to the skillet and stir to coat the chicken. Cook, reducing the heat if the sauce starts thickening too much, until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the jalapeños. Serve the chicken over the rice and top with cilantro leaves.

VIETNAMESE CARAMEL CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine sugar, fish sauce, and black pepper in a shallow plate and turn chicken in the marinade. Set aside for 10 minutes.
• Combine water, fish sauce, sugar, and rice vinegar in a bowl. Set caramel sauce aside.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and pan-fry chicken, skin-side up, until bottoms turn slightly crispy and brown, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook until skin is slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and transfer to a plate.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet and cook garlic for 30 seconds. Return chicken to the skillet and add caramel sauce. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear. Caramel sauce should be reduced and turn amber in color. Add jalapenos and cook for 1 more minute.

GRILLED VIETNAMESE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat grill.
• Place all the ingredients except the chicken in a shallow glass baking dish and stir them together.
• Make shallow slits across the chicken breast, going a little deeper in the thick end.
• Make shallow slits long ways, resulting in a slight diamond pattern in the meat.
• Put the chicken in the marinade and make sure some gets in the slits.
• This only needs to marinade for 10 or 15 minutes to pick up the flavor, I believe this is because of the slits.
• Place on grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until no longer pink.
• Turn once during cooking.
