Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Rinse the 1.5 lb chicken feet and trim any nails. Pat dry with paper towels.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large pot over medium-high heat, add the chicken feet and dry-fry until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add the 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 inch sliced ginger, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tbsp brown sugar, and 2 cups water. Stir to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the feet are tender, about 30 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Stir in the 1 cup pickled mustard greens and cook uncovered for 5 more minutes, until the greens are heated through and the sauce thickens slightly.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot over the 2 cups steamed rice, spooning extra sauce over the top.
