    Notes:

    This recipe turned out better than I hoped. I am not used to measuring my spices, or other ingredients, so I took my time and measured what I estimated I would want to include and then wrote it down to reference later.

    It did take quite a while for the sauce to thicken up, so patience is key. Although, I’d be curious if I used less water if it would have made a difference. My whole family thought the chicken turned out amazing, which I think is partly due to the fact that it really sat absorbing the sauce for quite some time.

    I did mention this is gluten-free, and that is because we used a gluten-free soy sauce. My mother has celiac, so most of my recipes are going to be gluten-free.

    Any gluten-free soy sauce will likely be okay in this recipe, but I chose to use Ocean's Halo "No Soy" Soy Free Sauce. We were able to find this product at our local grocery store, but it is also available on Amazon.com.

    If you decide to make it, I’d love to hear what you think! Give me a thumbs up or thumbs down on this recipe. Feel free to comment any suggestions, or interpretations of your own.

    Sincerely,

    ~Melissa
