3 lbs chicken thighs (skinless & cut in half with bone) **
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp peppercorns (crush about half)
5 cloves garlic (crushed)
3 bay leaves
salt to taste
Combine all ingredients. Cover and marinate 1-3 hours.
Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
Remove cover and simmer for an additional 15 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
** I used 5lbs of chicken without adjusting this recipe and it came out good. You can adjust the recipe as needed.
