Shoyu Chicken (Sugar-Free) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 lb. chicken thighs (skinless okay)
1 c. shoyu
1 1/2 c. water
1 (2-inch) ginger root, peeled and crushed
1/2 c. Equal (24 packets) sugar substitute
pinch of black pepper
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 medium size round onion
1 tsp. vegetable oil

Preparation

In a pot heat oil and stir-fry chicken until half cooked; drain oil and fat.
Mix in bowl, shoyu, water, ginger and Equal.
Cook chicken and onions for 5 minutes.
Pour shoyu mixture in with chicken.
Let simmer on low for 1 hour.
(Hint:
Cook on low heat so Equal sugar substitute doesn't lose its sweetness.)
Add extra water if too salty.
Season to taste.
Mix 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/3 cup cold water.
Add to simmering sauce to thicken.
Serve with hot rice.
