Put the unfolded chicken legs into a plastic bag, and add 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, just enough to coat the chicken legs. If you have time, squeeze it with your hands to make it easier to absorb the flavor. Of course, if you don’t have time, you can put it in the refrigerator like this and wait until tomorrow to cook it again, and it will be delicious by then

If you keep pinching, it will take about five minutes. Heat the pan without adding oil. Unfold the chicken legs and stick the skin side to the pan. Use low heat. The oil in the chicken skin will slowly fry out. Then turn over and use the fried oil to fry the meat side. At this time, you can cover the lid and simmer because the chicken legs are too thick.
