CHINESE PLUM SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the plums, sugar, apple cider vinegar, unseasoned rice vinegar, soy sauce, Chinese five-spice powder, ginger coins, chile and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and simmer until the plums are soft, about 20 minutes.
• Allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a blender, filling halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender until smooth.
• Transfer the blended plum mixture back to the same pot and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and you can see the bottom of the pot when you run a rubber spatula across the bottom, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a medium bowl or plate to cool to room temperature, about 2 hours.
• The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

TOO EASY ORIENTAL CHICKEN

Steps:

• Marinate chicken thighs in the dark soy sauce for at least 1 hour.

• Add in the chicken and saute until golden brown.
• Add in green onions, chicken broth, oyster sauce, rice wine, light soy sauce and Splenda.
• Stir well.
• Once the sauce starts to boil, about 3-5 minutes, mix in the cornstarch to thicken the sauce.
• Serve and enjoy.
