Simple Chicken Simmered in Soy Sauce

This is something I often ate that was made by my mother.
When she taught me the recipe I found that it was simple and was just a matter of putting everything into a pot and stewing.
Make sure to use crystal rock sugar (this recipe won't work well with other types of sugar).
1 cup of sugar might make the dish a bit too sweet, since the flavour should be subtle. I use about 3/4 cup but you can adjust the amount to your preference.
I recommend making the dishes described in the recipe in this order:
Chicken -> daikon radish and thick fried tofu -> taro roots and konnyaku. For 4 servings. Recipe by Meso

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add the chicken to a pot along with all of the flavourings. Cover with a lid and turn on the heat.
- 2
Once bubbles start to form, take the lid off and simmer for 20-30 minutes to finish. Remember to keep turning the meat over during cooking.
- 3
Add to a plate and it's already finished. You're done!
- 4
*You can re-use the broth the next day when boiling daikon radish or small new potatoes so don't throw it away. If you just use half the broth at a time you can use it the day after that too.
- 5
Use the broth after taking away any fat that's built up. If you put it in the fridge the fat will float to the surface so can be removed easily. It's a lot healthier this way.
- 6
Next Day: Boiled daikon radish. I paired it with atsuage and half the broth. The broth will be quite thick so make sure to add some water to it as well.
- 7
After 2 Days: Simmered Taro Roots. With konnyaku and the rest of the broth. Add more chicken or pork and it'll be even more delicious.

Chicken and Vegetables Simmered In Ponzu Sauce Chicken and Vegetables Simmered In Ponzu Sauce
The inspiration for this recipe is when I thought, what if I tried cooking meat and vegetables in ponzu, which goes with just about anything. Ponzu already has lots of flavor so you don't need much else.I don't simmer the broccoli together because I want to preserve the green color, but if you want it to absorb the sauce flavor you can do so.During Steps 3, 4 and 5 make sure to cook over low heat!!You can eat this right away when you are in a hurry, but it gets better the longer you can let it rest. For 2 servings. Recipe by rinocojp cookpad.japan -

Easy With A Microwave Chicken Breast Simmered In Ginger Soy Sauce Easy With A Microwave Chicken Breast Simmered In Ginger Soy Sauce
I was taught this recipe by my mother in law. No oil is used so it's very healthy, and you can really taste the flavors of the ingredients themselves.After microwaving the container you used will be quite hot, so be careful not to burn yourself when you take it out or when you take the plastic wrap off. Chicken breast meat is low in fat, so it tastes better if you leave the skin on. Recipe by YU-RI cookpad.japan -
Sardines Simmered in Soy Sauce Sardines Simmered in Soy Sauce
Sardines were on sale at the supermarket, so I made one of my husband's favorites - sardines simmered in soy sauce.Place the sardines in one layer in the pan, without overlapping them.I used a frying pan with a depth of 24 cm this time. *Basic tip: for blue fish, start with cold water. This way the skin doesn't tear. (For white fish, boil the liquid first)In Step 5,if you leave some of the simmering liquid, the flavor will be less strong. If you boil it down until the liquid is gone, the flavor will be stronger. Recipe by MORIYABAR cookpad.japan -
Soy Sauce Flavored Chicken in Cream Sauce Soy Sauce Flavored Chicken in Cream Sauce
Generally speaking, a cream sauce flavor doesn't go well with rice. But I still want to eat it with rice… So I came up with this recipe that would go well with rice.It has a strong flavor, so would go well with rice and/or sake (beer or wine).Please try it as a pasta sauce too!If you use a heavy cream that has more than 35% fat content (I strongly recommend 42% in particular!), the sauce will become tastier with added creaminess and richness.Please use any kind of mushroom you like.The heavy cream will start to separate when heated excessively, so make sure to add it right before serving.

Flavorful Oysters Simmered in Soy Sauce Flavorful Oysters Simmered in Soy Sauce
I had some leftover oysters, so I made a rich soy sauce dish.-If you rinse the oysters too much, the flavor will be washed off, so rinse for about 10 seconds or less.-This soy sauce dish can be stored in the refrigerator for about 1 week.-If using twice the amount of oysters, use the same amount of flavoring ingredients.
