Braised Chicken In Soya Sauce

    Cuisine:

    This was very nice. I tripled the recipe (by using half of a rather large chicken) and did not cut the pieces as small as called for. It would have been better to add the spices after about 10 minutes cooking, to allow for the extra cooking time needed, as they started to get a little harsh tasting. I also omitted the salt and used extra soy sauce instead, and used dry shiitake as I didn't have fresh. They stood up well to the longer cooking time. This was much simpler to make than the long list of ingredients would suggest. Thanks, Kim, for a yummy 'comfort food' dinner.
