Steps
Slice the chicken thighs into 1-inch bite-sized pieces.
Place the chicken pieces into a bowl and add the dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, grated garlic, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
Preheat a pan over medium-high heat and add a bit of neutral oil.
Add the chicken along with all of the marinade into the hot pan.
Cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74 °C) (74°C (165 °F)). As the chicken cooks, the sauce will naturally thicken and become sticky.
Serve the chicken over a bed of rice and top with sliced green onions if desired.
Notes
For a more tender texture, some users recommend velveting the chicken first. If you don't have oyster sauce, hoisin sauce can be used as a substitute. The recipe can also be adapted for tofu.
