OBAS SHOYU CHICKEN

Steps:

• Put the soy sauce, water, garlic, onion, and sugar in a large pot.
• Heat slowly so the sugar dissolves.
• If it is sour then add more sugar, too salty then add more water.
• If the sauce tastes good then throw in the chicken and simmer about 45 minutes.
• The liquid ingredients should thicken to a very good sauce.
• Serve over rice.

SHOYU CHICKEN

Steps:

• Over medium-high heat, brown chicken (skin-side down) in a saucepan. Brown for 5 minutes, until the skin is a deep golden color.
• Mix together in a bowl: shoyu, sugar, water, and rice vinegar. Pour the liquid mixture over the chicken in the sauce pan.
• Add in the smashed garlic and sliced ginger. Bring mixture to a boil, then turn back down to low heat. Put on a lid and let the chicken simmer (skin side up) for 10 minutes.
• Lift the lid. Turn the chicken skin-side down, and simmer for another 10 minutes. Remove chicken onto a plate. Reduce the sauce over medium heat until thick (like the thickness of honey).
• Serve the chicken over a big bowl of rice. Finish with chopped green onions, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and drizzle on the sauce. It's onolicious ^_^

FIVE-SPICE SHOYU CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut up chicken Chinese style (Cut off the end of the bone in the drumstick, cut each thigh in half, cut each wing into 2 segments with meat, and cut the breasts into strips transversely through the carcass with a heavy cleaver).
• Do not debone chicken.
• Combine the teriyaki sauce, five spice powder, cilantro, sesame oil, wine, and soy sauce.
• For added flavor, combine ingredients and marinate chicken for 12-24 hours before cooking.
• Add sauce and chicken to large saucepan of wok and bring to a simmer.
• Cook, covered, at least 30 minutes or until chicken cooked through.
• If time permits, cook for up to 1 hour on low heat- the longer cook time will get the chicken fall-off-the-bones tender.
• Serve warm with rice (Also makes great leftovers).
