Ingredients

1 chicken fryer
chopped ginger
1/2 cup shoyu sauce
sugar
water
mushrooms
green onions
bamboo shoots (optional)
hot rice

Steps:

I cut up a fryer into pieces, add lots of chopped ginger, and fry this until chicken is cooked. Then I add maybe half cup of shoyu sauce, with little sugar and water and add to the chicken and ginger and let this simmer a while. When I see the chicken is fully cooked, I then add some mushrooms and green onions. You can add bamboo shoots if you have them. I just make this simple. Enjoy. Easy and fast. Serve over hot rice.
