Ingredients
Shoyu Sauce
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 cup chopped white onion
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 5 tablespoons cornstarch dissolve in 5 tablespoons of water
Chicken
- 1 whole cut-up chicken
Garnish
- 4 sliced green onions
Instructions
- Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a large pot EXCEPT the cornstarch. Bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Reduce to a simmer and add chicken. Cook chicken for 30 to 40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked thoroughly. Remove chicken from pot, and place on a serving dish.
- Spoon off any excess fat from the sauce. Bring the sauce to a boil, and allow it to reduce for about 10 minutes.
- Add the dissolved cornstarch. Bring the sauce back to a boil, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens.
- Return the chicken to the pot and coat well with the sauce. Place the chicken on a serving dish and garnish with green onions.
Notes
- Be sure to cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Test for the temperature where the chicken is the thickest.
- This chicken recipe will work for any chicken part: chicken breasts, boneless skinless thighs, drumsticks, or even chicken wings!
- Concerned about the amount of sodium? Use low sodium soy sauce.
