👨‍🍳 Instructions

Whisk dark brown sugar, rice vinegar, water, fish sauce, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and crushed red pepper together in a bowl until sugar is completely dissolved.

Heat oil in a skillet over high heat.

Add chicken; cook until skin is golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Pour in 1/2 cup of the brown sugar mixture.

Cook and stir until sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes more.

Pour in remaining sauce; cook until the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes.

An instant-read thermometer should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Top with green onions.
