Vietnamese Caramel Chicken

Vietnamese Caramel Chicken

For the caramel

8 ounces (235g) light brown palm sugar, coarsely chopped

2/3 cup (160ml) fish sauce

2 Thai chiles, sliced lengthwise

For the chicken

1/4 cup (60ml) vegetable oil

1 1/2 pounds (700g) boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

2 inch (5cm) piece fresh ginger, peeled and julienned

3 medium shallots (about 2 ounces, total, 60g) shallots, peeled and sliced into rings

fresh cilantro, for garnish

1. To make the caramel, melt the palm sugar over low heat in a medium-to-large saucepan or skillet, stirring frequently (and breaking it up) to encourage it to melt. It'll take about 10 minutes to liquefy completely. Similarly, you can place the palm sugar in a large glass heatproof measuring cup or bowl and melt the palm sugar in a microwave oven, which will take about 20 to 30 seconds.

2. When the sugar is melted and bubbling, remove from heat and gradually add the fish sauce into the liquefied palm sugar, while stirring. (If you have a hood fan, you may wish to turn it on before adding the fish sauce.) It may also bubble up a bit, so be careful. Add the chiles and set aside.

3. To cook the chicken, heat the oil in a medium-to-large sauté or wide braising pan, or regular-sized Dutch oven. Add the ginger and shallots and cook until they start to wilt, about 2 minutes.

4. Stir in the chicken and the caramel, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat until the sauce is just simmering. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. (The original recipe said to cook the chicken for 20 minutes, but mine
