So I’ve migrated towards Asian cuisine after the addition of a beautiful son from Shenzhen, Guangdong, China in 2012.  After 14 years, his tastebuds are pretty well fixated on “Chineesee Fooooood!” as he calls it.  The stuff in parenthesis is how I prepared the recipe…..

Ingredients:

• 240 gm chicken breast, julienned (1 3# bag of thighs)
• 3 to 4 tomatoes (about 300 gm), cut into chunks, deseeded (about 15 Romas, not seeded)
• 20 gm brown sugar (片糖, chop into smaller pieces), available at Asian stores (1/2 c brown sugar)
• 1 tsp minced garlic (2 TB garlic)
• 1 Tbsp tomato ketchup (5 tb ketchup)
• 1/2 cup water (no water, I just used the marinade)
• a dash of salt

Marinade:

• 2 tsp light soy sauce (3 Tb soy sauce or Braggs Amino Acids)
• 1 tsp Shaoxing wine (1 Tb rice wine)
• 1 tsp sugar (1 Tb sugar)
• 1 tsp cornflour (none)
• pepper, to taste
• salt, to taste

Chop chicken and tomatoes.  Combine everything and cook until safe to eat.  Top with scallions if desired.  Serve with rice.
