Soy sauce chicken (see yao gai) is a comfort food from my childhood. Growing up in an Asian family, food was and will always be our love language. I continue this tradition in my own growing family, trying to improve my culinary techniques and expanding my bank of food knowledge whenever I can. My husband also loves to cook and the little ones love to help out as well! My version of this classic Chinese dish has a more approachable, less labour-intensive method that you can do at home. Enjoy!
