Mom's Style Chicken in Soy Sauce

Everyone believes that their mother is the best cook under the heavens. I, too, think this about Ms Lee’s (my mother) cooking talent. She can cook just about any type of food.  But I didn’t learn how to cook from her as unfortunately I didn’t grew up with her. I was only with her until I was 7 years old. 

This is one of Ms Lee’s signature dishes and all my family members like it very much. Ms Lee used to cook it quite often as it’s super-fast and easy to cook. This is also one of Hub’s favourite chicken dishes. In the original recipe Ms Lee uses rice wine instead of Worchester sauce.
