Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Even without oil, if you stir the chicken diligently after the water evaporates, it won't stick and you'll get a beautiful brown sear.
  • While water remains, the chicken never sticks to the pan, so focus on stirring from the moment the droplets fully evaporate to avoid failure.
  • The pungent ground mustard sauce refreshes the fatty taste of chicken thighs, making a diet meal less monotonous.

Recommended for

  • Strict dieters concerned about calories from oil heating.
  • Those who want to enjoy moist, oil-free pan-seared chicken thighs instead of dry chicken breast.
  • Those who prefer a pungent and tangy yangjangpi-style sauce that clears the sinuses.
