Step 1

Dry off the chicken thighs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper on both sides. Let them sit at room temp to dry brine for 20 minutes. Chop your bok choy, scallions, onion and garlic during this time. Also mix your sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 3

Heat a large Dutch oven on medium high. Dry off the chicken thighs once more with a paper towel. Place the chicken thighs skin side down in the hot Dutch oven and let the fat render for 5-10 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Remove the chicken.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently in the beginning so the onion doesn’t fry in the hot chicken fat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 more minutes.

Step 5

Deglaze the pan with chicken broth. Pour in the sauce mixture and stir together. Add the chili flakes and stir. Add the noodles and submerge them into the liquid. Place the chicken thighs on top and submerge the meat as much as possible.

Step 6

Bake covered for 30 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked at 165 degrees internally.

Step 7

Remove the pot from the oven. Remove the chicken and set on a plate. Add the bok choy and scallions (reserving a small handful for topping) to the noodles and stir until the bok choy is bright green.

Step 8

Plate the noodles. Add sliced chicken on top. Top with scallions and more red chili flakes if preferred.
