Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 pounds boneless , skinless chicken thighs, rinsed and patted dry
• 6 cloves garlic , peeled and thinly sliced
• 0.5 cups soy sauce
• 0.5 cups apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 cups water
• 2 tablespoons pickling spice , wrapped in cheesecloth

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat until oil is shimmering. Cook garlic in oil for no more than 30 seconds. Add all of the chicken to the pot; cook, stirring frequently, until chicken is white all over. Do not brown.

2. 2

   Pour in soy sauce, vinegar, and water, and add the pickling spice. Make sure the spice ball is submerged. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, and place lid on pot so that some steam can escape. Simmer for 1 hour, or until chicken is very tender.
