Shoyu Chicken
Cooking MethodSlow Cooker
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup shoyu (soy sauce)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- grated fresh ginger
- chopped garlic
- chopped green onion tops
- 2 pound chicken thighs and/or legs
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, sugar, ginger, garlic, green onion tops. The chicken can be prepared in four different ways. The chicken can be boiled or simmered in the sauce til done. It can be baked in the sauce til done. The sauce and chicken can be put in a slow cooker for 4 to 6 hours (or til done). Or, the chicken can marinate overnight in the sauce (in the refrigerator) and then grilled, basting with the sauce. I have always either made it in a slow cooker or grilled it. The sauce is also great with beef.
