Okay - we added this dish to our menu at Buddha Cafe in Japan. We added Sake cooking wine and for the side we use Kale and Spinach. Thanks to your Grandma!!!
I,am sitting here with NO lunch today and watching Flo do this recipe,and i, am jealous of Dude at the moment because i, am so hungry and that chicken looks to die for.
Looks delicious! I wasn't in the kitchen with my grandmother as they didn't want me around them. You are so lucky that your grandparents loved you and wanted to teach you.
When I was young children weren't allowed on the kitchen that was at both of my grandparents home.
That was back when children were served after the men.
I know the feeling, my grandma I really loved I wasn't allowed to be around very much(dad's mom).y mom's mom never wanted me around so I learned to cook in Home Economics in school but they sure never taught Chinese or Asian cooking, lol. They did spark my enthusiasm for cooking tho. I especially love Chinese, Asian and Peruvian cooking.
It was their loss, and Flo can teach you to cook.
This has become a staple recipe for me. Literally make this once a week. Thanks to you and your grandmother for putting this recipe into the world.
Now that the weather is getting coolish here in Toronto, it's the perfect time to bring out the chicken dish you prepared. Just cook rice. How perfect! Thanks, Flo!
Omg Flo, this reminded me of a braised pork belly with sweet preserved veg dish my grandmother made. Love it when people reminisce and share dishes they grew up eating!
Your recipes are great. The best thing about them is how simple they are. I used drumsticks (and a bit longer time) for this recipe and it was perfect. I also removed the chicken and added potatoes to the liquid and cooked some more. Yummy.
I Love that they are simple recipes. because we are real people no need to be complicated. Thankyou for your lovely channel Flo and Dude. I have just subscribed.
love your recipes because of its simplicity..
I agree, please make more videos on Asian recipes, I've just got my instant pot and so excited to explore Asian dishes with it
I love your honesty.Its priceless.
Julia and the "Joy of Cooking" and later Jacque were my inspirations to learn how to cook. Forget about mother and grandmother little to no domesticity and nurturing in both women. Your grandmother was well educated in raising and guiding your Mom and passed all her wisdom down to you. My motto came from Confucius, "When the student is ready the teacher will appear." You are becoming my latest teacher in cooking plus you and Dude as spiritual inspirers.
I tried your green beans with pork recipe a few days ago and my kids and husband loved it. Today I am going to try the soy sauce chicken. Really love your recipes with simple ingredients.
I just learned the Ads played out earn you $$$, I will do that for you becuse I love your Chinese cooking, my mom never taught me to cook her Chinese ways but just tell me, you have to watch. So now I have you. Thank you for so much.
Another wonderful recipe that brings back memories. Thanks Flo & Dude.
Searching desperately for asian pressure cooker recipes and found your channel finally!
I like that the traditional dishes r tweaked to be a little western taste
Hi Flo,
I made this recipe this past weekend after receiving my new wok and it was absolutely delicious! I served it over rice and even my husband raved about it. I can't wait to try more of your recipes. Thank you!
I made this for dinner tonight. It was quick, easy and the kids enjoyed it!
Thanks Flo and Dude. This recipe looks awesome...
I loved the Bugs Bunny reference- that always used to kill me as a kid- that, and when someone got whacked on the head and make those big lumps come up and the little birdies fly around tweeting. Thanks for sharing your Grandma's recipe. It's so important to remember and love and honor those who have gone before us and who helped shape us. She would be proud of you.
Ginger helps tenderize but also gets rid of any raw or gamey smell. I love anything that is marinated in soya sauce.
Loving these home style Chinese recipes, Flo! Brings back wonderful childhood memories. This, too, was one of my favorite dishes that mom made us, with white rice and a green veggie. Simple and delicious! Thanks Flo and Dude.
So funny about the chewing My Uncle Frank who was Chinese and German always made us chew 26 times before swallowing. That just made me reminisce about a wonderful man who always made me see the world in a different way. I miss him dearly. In many ways Dude reminds me of him. Looks like him glasses and all. The kind voice and the sense of humor. Most importantly an awesome wife. On a side not I am on a Ketoish food journey to manage my Diabetes so I love the adaptability of your meals. I sub out the cornstarch and sugar with low carb counterpoints so I get to enjoy the flavors and don't feel like I'm sacrificing great meals. Thank you
Agree with Dude, my sisters and I are still trying to replicate my grandma's pickle recipe because she cooked everything from memory, nothing written. BUT, I can still to this day "taste" her exact pickles, but cant quite replicate them.... Thank you both...!!!
My grandmother's apple custard pie. Same thing!
Excellent..love when you adapt your childhood recipes to the instant pot..ty..🙏
Saw this recipe in Flo's book and going to try it this weekend. Love simple, straightforeward, no fuss recipes. Grandma and mom always cooked the best (usually). I would have tossed in the ginger slices, love to eat the ginger as part of the vegetable component of the meal. Jaques Pepin!!!, his books played a huge part in my culinary education many years ago.
Jacques Pepin is a treasure. His books La Methode & La Technique are classics. But my favorite is his A French Chef Cooks at Home.
The cooking is super simple and save money. Thank you and have many blessings
Dude's thoughtful commentaries are always my favorite part of the video
Good video. I will start cooking some of the dishes you showed .My mum used to cook them too. I missed her cooking.
Plum wine is wonderful with chicken. I also make a dipping sauce with strawberry preserves,small amounts of soy sauce and Plum wine. Yum
Simple nice and easy Chinese cooking thank you
I have been watching your channel for sometime but never really tried any of the dishes because I don't have an Instapot. Last year I became single again, and having 2 jobs to survive, I had to figure out how to cook food that would last until my next day off. The solution I found was the Aroma rice cooker that had slow cooker functions. For about a year, I cook while I sleep.
Recently I passed by Walmart to buy ink for my printer and I saw a baby Instapot. I wanted to buy but I keep asking myself, how to use it??? For old school seniors, technology is not a welcoming thought LoL
Anyways, today I just can't help watch you prepare your Grandma's soy sauce chicken (last night I watched your video on steamed egg with minced pork). I really wanted to try the steamed egg but we didn't have minced pork (drats!). Chicken was on sale so Grandma's soy sauce chicken it shall be.
To my surprise, I didn't need an instapot to prep this dish (I was listening keenly as you described how your own grandma would cook). The verdict, its SO YUMMY!!!!!! I am actually having it now. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe. This will now be a staple in my kitchen. Not only did I find something different to eat that tastes so good, I have something new to share with my very close friends here in Missouri.
Looks good! I have to agree with dude....I love my instant pot but for some things you just cant beat a good set of seasoned/well used black iron pans.
looks nice. Similar to my local chinese takeaway which is owned by an older women who is traditional only difference is she puts noodles and beansprouts and serves it as the best chicken chow mein ever. Which it is.
Grandmas are inspiring. I remember how she cooked her chicken dishes and replicate them.
Looks super-easy to make, very easy on the wallet, and most importantly super-tasty! Thanks Flo and Dude!
The sugars and proteins from the sauce and chicken does tend to "hard glaze" the bottom of the pot. So, a little water always helps. Bourbon would add some sweet, caramel like flavour, too. Even chicken stock if one wants. Your recipe is soooooooooooooo good, too!
Looks great Flo!!!! My PawPaw's recipe includes a touch of 5-spice and I like to include wood ear and mushroom. So good over rice! Give it a try!!! Dude is right, bring them back.
This is a childhood favorite for me too. Our family always added garlic and mushrooms. My husband loves our Ninja Foodi and will love the challenge of creating char marks.
Tip: to deglaze the bottom of the pot with onions, just add a pinch of salt to make them sweat more and add a tablespoon of water or chicken stock, then scrape with a wodden spatula. Works perfectly for me when I sear chicken like you did. 😊
Looks so delicious. I think my Mom put star anise in there as well! I always loved that effect.
I really like your cooking video. You make it easy, thanks.
Hi Flo and Dude, I am really loving adding ginger to what I cook.
I made this and it was a hit! Thanks for another good one. We are a SE Asian family. Yum.
So many things you could possibly add in. Thanks for this idea.
wow gmom recipe! lov it already, thanks for sharing your gma rec.
This is so simple, delicious, fast, and so much cheaper than eating out! Thank you for sharing!
Excellent video! I cant wait to try this recipe! Love the combination of chicken and onions. Simplicity at its best!
I am making this for dinner tomorrow 🥰 thank you. Delicious
Really enjoy your recipes. I grew up all over and ate with so many different cultures. ❤
Tip of the day: run a clean butter knife into the bottle, while tipping over the bowl, ketchup/sauce will pour out quickly. Such a beautiful nostalgic recipe!
Good on you Dude, you "chew" you. 😊
I eat slowly as well but because I like to savour the flavour. 👌 Once it hits my belly, what I ate is a mere memory.
Just finished eating this delicious dish and my son loved it and he is a picky eater so Thank you it was great.
Looks delicious. You are making me hungry.
I never even knew about that community tab. How helpful is that!
Thank you to show us to cook delicious foods and so simple to make .I’m glad I found your channel.Thanks again and can’t wait to learn more from you .May god bless you and your family.
Love, love Flo's recipes.
My husband would eat Asian food EVery night if he could. I love it too. I need to make it at home though because the restaurants are getting a bit expensive. Thank you for more of those recipes from relatives, please!
Hooked on your recipes. Thanks. Can't wait to try some.
Delicious , yum my family will enjoy this . Thank you for sharing
You two are so enjoyable to watch. The cooking, presence, the jokes I love it :)
I’ll be searching for a steamed rice recipe on your page next :D
Just made this again last week for like the 10th time. So good!!!!
I have a instant pot, but have not used it that much. Watching your channel has inspired me, thank you and this dish looks delicious
Love love love your videos. Can’t decide which one I want to try first. ❤️🙏
thanks for showing us the greens! i definitely want to make this.
That looks so delicious I have to make it tomorrow over rice. Thanks for your great recipes.
Wow...my mom has a similar recipe but rather than onions ...its cut up 1.5" to 2" green onions with the ginger ...and rather than water....no salt chicken stock . Served with rice is a must:)
Funny thing...reminds me of an old school Chinese restaurant dish...singing chicken in a claypot.
Anytime you have sugar in a marinate it will turn brown & likely stick in the pan. Creates a caramelizing in the pot or pan.
Looks yummy! Was *so* looking forward to "The Taste" today 'cause this recipe looked especially yummy - maybe it was that "onion sauce", 'cause I do so love onions. Didn't see your poll, but I'm all in for Asian inspired recipes - after all, it is your and Dude's heritage and what better way to learn a cuisine that from someone that has been exposed to it all their life! 😊 Besides the Instant Pot recipes, I'd also be interested in different stir-fry recipes and stand-alone Asian vegetable recipes. I've always had a couple of Asian type meat recipes that I've used, but never knew what to serve as a complimentary vegetable.
Please add a quick mention on how you cooked the side veggie. Love how you explain the main course!👍
Just added this to this week’s menu! Thank you!!
I love seeing Dude tasting your food after it has been cooked and he do it so well. That chicken dish looks great and must be so delicious and I love the gravy you made with the corn starch and water mix and it helped to make the gravy better. I love the tip on how to look for fresh vegetables when buying them.
My grandmother has been watching your channel for about a month now and she called me telling me to watch your recipies. I am at her house for the next few weeks and I'm planning to make this for her this week :) will let you know how it goes 🤞🏽
Flo and Dude!! Holy smackeroos I just made this and I am blown away by how quick and delicious it was. Like I had to have seconds because it was that good!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. Like Dude I love when you share stories about your family and feel so so priveleged to be part of the community you share them with. Be safe and God bless
So kind! Thanks, Emma!
Yummy I'll make this recipe for sure and with rice I could eat rice everyday, this one is a keeper. Have a wonderful evening stay safe and healthy. ❤😊🥰👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏
Love your recipes !! Thank you for them....love learning Asian Cooking too! love simple recipes!
😊I just made this for dinner tonight. & MMM! VERY GOOD!! Thanks for the recipe Flo.
Thank you so much for sharing your recipes and you always use chicken that what I like to cook with so thank you
....lol that's so true. My father asked me once how his fried chicken tasted, I told him it was very good, and what was the recipe. He told me to pay more attention when he's cooking to find out!! So he found out I had about 6 fried chicken legs!! Well the following week he made fried chicken everywhere day!!!!
Looks yummy. Gotta try it. Love your recipes..
I definitely love your recipes you make me so hungry when you cook.
Hi Flo and Dude. I eat lots of chicken, so I can't have too many tasty options and this looks delicious. Thanks.
The gravy looks so good!
I luv FLO!!! Not a bad recipe yet.
I put carrots and mushrooms in and serve with rice. So yum!
That's a version of what we call shoyu chicken in Hawaii and we use green onion with shoyu , ginger and garlic and green onion marinate cook on the grill and it is ono meaning good
Excellent job Flo!
One of my favorite dishes to make now. First tried it during lockdown. Thanks for sharing! Love it.
I do something similar, but we grill it over charcoal. We also call it soy sauce chicken. While it's grilling, we baste it with soy sauce and melted butter. Yummy!
Ooh... that sounds yummy!
Thanks Flo for another yummy recipe.
so true about that grandma knows you like something lol
Hey yall I love yall! When I make 1 of your recipes my daughter can't stay out of the pan. I made the tofu black been dish she said oh mom the kitchen smells AMAZING! :):)
I love your instant pot recipes thank you
Definitely making this tonight
I love your Asian IP recipes! Thank you !!
I like this lady.
Me too!
I’m gonna make this tonight using thin cut pork chops. Thanks for the recipe
I do mine differently, I poach my chicken, bone in too for additional flavours. But I would also prefer a bit more spices like adding shallots, green onions, cinnamon, cloves, star anise, bay leaf, some sort of peppercorn, rock sugar, wine for an intenser flavour. Though I understand the you prefer more simple cooking! But you should give these ingredients a try. If you guys don't enjoy some of those flavours don't use all.
Remind dishwasher Dude to slightly sharpen washed knives when ready to put away. Just takes a little and they are ready to use.
Sounds/looks delicious; gonna try it, for sure!
Y'all Be Safe!
Hi Miss Flu, Your recipe are very helpful to me,. I just started following You last week,.And I found that your recipes are easy to make... I actually make Hainanese Chicken with Rice and they really love it!🥰 I always used ginger too for the chicken because it can remove the stinky smell from the meats.😊
