The mix of different spices in this recipe creates an irresistible aroma of deliciousness and it is best paired with rice or mashed potatoes.<\/p>\n<p>In this recipe I used a cooking method called braising. It is process of cooking where you pan seared the meat in high temperature then slowly cooking it in liquid seasoning and spices until you get the desired taste in low heat. The meat slowly absorbs the entire flavor from the ingredients as it cooks and as a result, the braising method makes a juicy and flavorful chicken thigh.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-262\" src=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2899_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"952\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2899_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2899_edit-scaled-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Prep Time:<\/strong> 10 min<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cooking Time:<\/strong> 35 min<\/p>\n<p><strong>Serves:<\/strong> 4<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-220\" src=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2912_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2912_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2912_edit-scaled-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2912_edit-scaled-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-264\" src=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2913_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2913_edit-scaled-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2913_edit-scaled-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kattypem.com\/ramens-recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/05\/IMG_2913_edit-scaled-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a01 \u00bd lbs. chicken thigh \u2013 washed and trimmed excess skin and fat<\/li>\n<li>2 inch long fresh ginger &#8211; thinly sliced<\/li>\n<li>1 tbsp. red pepper flakes<\/li>\n<li>4 whole star anise<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd tbsp. salt<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd tbsp.\u00a0 ground black pepper<\/li>\n<li>3 stalks of green onions &#8211; chopped<\/li>\n<li>6 cloves fresh garlic &#8211; thinly sliced<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup soy sauce<\/li>\n<li>1 \/3 cup vinegar<\/li>\n<li>1\/3 cup honey<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp.
