Ginger wine chicken thighs are a traditional dish that combines intense and comforting flavors, deeply rooted in Asian cuisine, especially Chinese. This dish stands out for its use of ginger wine, a fermented ingredient that provides an aromatic and slightly spicy touch, balancing the mildness of the chicken. In Latin America, this recipe can be found with variations and different names, depending on the country and cultural influence, but it is commonly known as stewed chicken or chicken in wine, although the particular touch of fermented ginger makes it unique. In countries like Mexico, Peru, or Argentina, the dish is often adapted to local ingredients, but the concept of chicken cooked in a rich and spiced sauce remains. This preparation reflects the richness of fusion cuisine and the importance of fermented ingredients in adding depth of flavor.
