Chicken Thigh with Caramelized Onions

Instructions

  1. Weigh 180 g of raw skinless, boneless chicken thigh meat, cut into 4 cm pieces. Slice the 120 g of onion and chop the 6 g of garlic.

  2. In a small Dutch oven, heat the 12 g of oil. Cook the onion for 15 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring; it should become soft and golden. Add 15 ml of water if the bottom starts to brown too quickly.

  3. Add the chicken and brown it for 6 minutes, turning it. Stir in the garlic, a pinch of ginger, a pinch of turmeric and some pepper for 30 seconds.
