This recipe for Olympic Seoul Chicken was adapted from David Lebovitz’s recipe. It’s a very flavorful Asian-style recipe for pan-braised chicken thighs.
We served Olympic Seoul Chicken with zucchini slices microwaved with a tiny bit of olive oil and a chopped veggie salad topped by a relish of our very low sodium Black-eyed Peas, Corn, and Tomato Salad. The black-eyed pea salad was left-over from a few days ago.
