Ingredients:

  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoons pecel seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • Seasoning to taste
  • Water, as needed

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Pecel Seasoning:

    • In a pan, heat the pecel seasoning until fragrant. Add a small amount of water to help dissolve and infuse the seasoning. Stir occasionally until the mixture becomes aromatic and slightly thickened.
  2. Cook the Chicken:

    • Pre-cook the chicken thighs until tender. You can boil or steam them until they reach the desired tenderness. Once cooked, transfer the chicken thighs to the pan with the pecel seasoning.
  3. Combine and Simmer:

    • Toss the chicken thighs in the pecel seasoning mixture, ensuring they are well-coated. Simmer the chicken in the mixture until the flavors are fully absorbed, and the seasoning is well integrated into the meat.
  4. Season to Taste:

    • Add the oyster sauce and seasoning according to your taste preferences. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
  5. Serve:

    • Once the chicken is fully coated and the seasoning has been absorbed, remove from heat. Serve hot and enjoy!
