My Mom's Chinese Pot Roasted Chicken

shielaw_11457146's Note:

My Mom took the orginial recipe and made it her own. It is still quick, cheap and cost less than the orginigal Chinese Pot Roasted Chicken. This is one of my favorite recipes. I enjoy this over rice. So easy and simple, I think anyone can fix this and really enjoy serving to family and friends.
