🧂 食材
- 1 kg Chicken pieces (thighs or drumsticks)
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Vinegar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 6 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Onion, sliced
- 2 pieces Star anise
- 2 Bay leaves
- 2 medium Potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 2 medium Carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 Saba bananas (or regular bananas), sliced
- 2 tbsp Cooking oil

👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Marinate the chicken pieces in soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, minced garlic, star anise, and bay leaves for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
💡 專業提示: Marinating helps the chicken absorb the flavors and tenderizes the meat. - 2
Heat cooking oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken pieces until lightly browned on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
💡 專業提示: Searing the chicken creates a flavorful base for the sauce. - 3
In the same pot, sauté the sliced onions until softened and translucent. Add the marinated chicken back into the pot along with the marinade.
💡 專業提示: Ensure all the marinade ingredients are added to the pot for maximum flavor. - 4
Add the cubed potatoes, sliced carrots, and sliced saba bananas (if using). Pour in the water or chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
💡 專業提示: Simmering on low heat allows the flavors to meld and the chicken to become very tender. - 5
Uncover the pot and continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
💡 專業提示: Adjust seasoning as needed. Some soy sauces are saltier than others. - 6
Serve hot, preferably with steamed white rice.
💡 專業提示: Chicken Estofado is best enjoyed with rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
💡 專業提示
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of oyster sauce to the marinade.
- ✓If saba bananas are unavailable, regular ripe bananas can be used, but add them in the last 10-15 minutes of cooking to prevent them from becoming too mushy.
- ✓Some variations include adding pineapple chunks or juice for a sweeter, tangier profile.
