Paltry Chicken Recipe

I haven’t done one of these in a while, but I thought it’d be good to get into the habit of posting the recipes I’ve been trying. Here’s a really simple chicken sauce recipe I recently learned:

1. Make Sauce
Make a sauce using the following ingredients:

1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons white sugar

2. Cook Chicken
Finely chop one onion and saute in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until translucent. Add 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves.

3. Simmer
Pour sauce over the chicken, and bring to a boil.
Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 25-35 minutes.

The first time I cooked this I used the measurements listed above, but the next time I attempted it, I doubled the measurements for the sauce, changed it to a red onion…and it all worked out wonderfully:
