  • Shallow fry the chicken - Heat 2 tablespoon butter in a large, thick-bottomed skillet and put in the chicken with the marinade. Cook on medium high heat. The marinade is liquidy. Let the water evaporate and then brown the chicken. Turn the chicken over during cooking. Keep the cooked chicken aside.
