Ingredients:

2lbs chicken wings

1/3 cup soy sauce or Tamari (gluten free)

1 tbsp Dark soy sauce (if can’t find gluten free, you may omit. This is for color)

1/4 cup white vinegar

5-6 cloves crushed garlic cloves

2-3 tbsp brown sugar (2 recommended)

1 tsp whole peppercorns

2 bay leaves

1/2 lb green beans (trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces)

Directions:

Mix all ingredients except peppercorns and bay leaves into a bowl and marinate chicken, refrigerate for at least an hour. (Do this ahead of time). In a large skillet, add 1-2 tbsp of cooking oil ( I use avocado oil) on high heat, add chicken to pot and cook for 5-7 min or until light brown on both sides, pour marinate from bowl in pot, add pepper corns and 2 bay leaves, reduce heat to medium low and cover, boil for 30 min, flip chicken half way through, add green beans the last 10 min of cooking so that it steams in sauce) after 30 min, add 1/2 cup water into pot and let simmer for 2-3 min. Enjoy over rice!
