Sweet/Salty/Sour
What is it about the combination of sweet and salty we love so much? Here's a kid-friendly, easy weeknight dinner (no chopping onions or garlic) and simple to double or triple.   Serves 4-6 

One pan sweet and salty chicken

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 ½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 ½ tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • Sea Salt
  • 2 tablespoons quality vegetable cooking oil
METHOD:
  • Combine the apple cider vinegar, tamari, maple syrup and ground pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Pat dry the chicken thighs with paper towel. Season generously with salt.
  • Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
  • When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken. Cook for 3-4 minutes until brown and crispy, then turn and do the same on the other side.
  • Carefully pour over the maple syrup mixture and bring it to a boil.
  •  Turn down the heat to a simmer and let the maple syrup mixture reduce, flipping the chicken thighs every minute or so to ensure they remain completely coated in the glaze.
  • When the chicken thighs are cooked through and the maple mixture is thick and syrupy, remove the chicken from the heat and serve immediately.
 

Serving suggestion: salad, sweet potatoes, roasted asparagus and zucchini.
