Soy simmered chicken

This is very easy and tasty recipe and it takes only 15-20 minutes from start to finish. I highly recommend that you cook root veggies, such as carrot, daikon radish or burdock with the chicken. They definitely go well. Before cooking the chicken, tightly roll it up and skewer with toothpicks to hold closed.
