A flavorful and tender chicken dish cooked in a sweet soy-based sauce, perfect for a comforting meal.
Combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, white wine, water, and minced garlic in the 6-quart pan.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure the sugar dissolves evenly.
Heat the mixture over medium heat until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Stir occasionally to prevent the sugar from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Add the chicken thighs to the pan and cover with a lid.
Arrange the chicken in a single layer for even cooking.
Reduce the heat to low and let the chicken simmer gently for 1 hour.
Check occasionally to ensure the sauce doesn't dry out; add a splash of water if needed.
Remove the lid and continue cooking for an additional 30 minutes to thicken the sauce.
Stir occasionally to coat the chicken evenly with the sauce.
Serve the chicken on a plate, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds or chopped green onions for added flavor and presentation.
