Steps:

• For the chicken marinade: Dissolve the sugar in 3 cups warm water. Add the garlic, fish sauce and salt and mix well. Cool completely. Add the chicken to the marinade and refrigerate for 1 day.
• For the sofrito: Place the apples, onions, ginger and garlic in a pot, then add just enough oil so that everything is submerged. Cook on low heat until everything is brown, 2 1/2 hours.

• When the pot comes to a boil, add the cornstarch mixture and cook until thickened, 3 more minutes.
• For the chili pepper chicken: Preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
