Recipe Notes

It is not necessary to season the chicken with salt before cooking for this recipe. The soy sauce has enough acidity to bring out the flavors in the chicken. 

Dredge both sides the chicken through the flour so that the sauce adheres to each side.

Dipping the chicken in the flour first will also help the chicken stay moist.

Add a 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the sauce before pouring it over the chicken to add a little spice to this recipe.
