Method
- Add some oil to a pan. Brown the chicken on both sides. Lightly salt and pepper on both sides. Remove the chicken pieces once browned.
- Remove excess oil. I like to use paper towels.
- Add the garlic and black peppercorns. Saute for a minute until it is fragrant.
- Add the rest of the ingredients (soy sauce, vinegar, water, sugar, and bay leaves) and add back the chicken.
- Let it come to a boil, and turn the heat down to a low-medium simmer. Cover with lid.
- Cook for 20 minutes on a low simmer.
- Open the lid and turn the heat up to medium-high heat to let the braising liquid reduce to your desired consistency for 5 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!

Notes
*Remove the chicken skin for a healthier meal. I do not like the texture of chicken skin when it's not crispy.
*No need to marinade as the chicken is braised.
