This is a simple and authentic Chinese recipe. The chicken tastes like what is available at Chinese restaurants in Chinatown. The ingredients should be easily available from Chinese grocerers. The sauce to cook the chicken can also be reused several times. Tip: Put the sauce in the refrigerator after cooking and remove the (harden) layer of oil before reusing.
