  1. If you double the chicken quantity do you also need to double the sauce?

  8. I made this a few times now…. I like to double the volume of sauce since the breaded chicken soaks it all up.. I’m adding some shiitake mushrooms, zucchini & pineapple bits this time… I don’t add as much sugar this recipe calls for, plenty sweetness in the catchup.

  9. Great recipe! I'd just add plum juice as well, really makes the sauce's flavor really pop out.

  11. Cooking for three, how much do I multiply the ingredients for the sauce? Also, can I use kikoman soy sauce as it doesn't specify as being dark or light on the bottle??
