This Heavenly Sauce an amazingly delicious sauce! It originates from a recipe called Daddy Wu’s Chinese Chicken, but I have used it with sautéed chicken, shrimp and even with pork. It has a remarkable flavor and is so easy to make.
Tip : A great vegetarian sauce to go with white rice or steamed veggies. Also tasty with shrimp or chicken and pork.
