I will keep this recipe, looks so similar to some our the Philippine dishes so I know this will be so good

Kelly, we have such a cloudy awful morning (very frequent here) and your message arrives like a ray of sunshine! Thank you so much for trying this recipe and, most of all, for letting me know how it was appreciated. I am very happy you and your family liked it! The original recipe calls for the same volume of sugar and soy sauce, but last time I made it I added 60 ml agave syrup, which was perfect for me. Now you have made me want to have it once more this weekend! I’m going to see my butcher today!

Made your shoyu chicken last night – my husband *adored* the glaze (I did not mention that it was a new recipe – this was a free and unsolicited compliment I might try it with slightly less sugar next time although I hope I can approximate the consistency which was perfect. Our boys loved it too Sissi! Thanks.

Thank you, Charles. It wasn’t as sticky as barbecued meat, since the chicken cooks in the sauce… The advantage (when compared to barbecued chicken) is that there is lots of leftover sauce!

Thank you, Rosa. Thanks for the confirmation about the photo, that’s what I suspected, I was furious I couldn’t locate the street or the restaurant, but it’s the mystery of the black and white photos

I am sure people appreciate when you talk Chinese, I hope they don’t want to scalp you when you make mistakes

Thank you, Caroline. When I didn’t have any meat or rice left, I wiped some sauce off with bread It was also excellent the following day with other dishes.
