Ingredient Notes
Chicken – I preferred to use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but you can use chicken breast as well. Oregano – Dried oregano is great in this recipe. Cornstarch – Used to thicken the sauce. Brown Sugar – Brown sugar helps to add that caramelized flavor to the chicken. Soy Sauce – This ingredient is going to give us lots of umami flavor and color, be sure to use a lighter soy sauce to control sodium intake and a higher quality sauce will go a long way. Balsamic Vinegar – We want this tangy flavor to act as a bit of a chemical tenderizer while adding tons of depth of flavor.
