Ingredients
  

  • 10-20 cloves black garlic about 1 head
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ginger minced
  • 1 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 16 oz chicken cut into pieces
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • ½ cup red & green bell peppers sliced
  • ½ cup onion sliced
  • fresh parsley for topping, optional
  • cooked rice for serving

Instructions
 

  • Remove all skin from the black garlic cloves. Use the back of a fork to mash the garlic into a paste.
  • For a smooth hoisin sauce, use a food processor to blend the garlic paste with the soy sauce, honey, fish sauce, ginger, and rice vinegar. If you prefer a thicker texture, whisk the paste into these ingredients until you reach the desired consistency.
  • Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and sear them on all sides until browned—about 1-2 minutes per side. Toss in the sliced veggies and sauté for one minute.
  • Pour your freshly made hoisin sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let everything simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
  • Serve your black garlic chicken in a large bowl over white rice, and enjoy!
