Hi all my foodies! Today I’m partnering with Sobaek Mountain-Sky Herb & Fruit’s apple juice. And I’d like to share with you an awesome recipe for this holiday, one pan braised chicken thighs with apple juice.
One Pan Braised Chicken Thighs in Apple Juice Recipe
Serves: 2 to 4 people
Prep time: 35 minutes

Pinch of white pepper
Other ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra light olive oil
10 garlic cloves, peeled

Instruction:
- To marinate the chicken, in a bowl, mix in the apple juice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and white pepper. Transfer in the chicken and let it marinate for 30 minutes.
