Teriyaki Chicken

1 c soy sauce
2 c water
2 onions, sliced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 piece fresh ginger
2 T brown sugar
1 tsp Chinese five spice
5 lb cut up chicken
Cold water
Cornstarch

Mix soy sauce, water, onions, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, and Chinese five spice in large pot. Add chicken and boil, covered, for 1 hour. Thicken with cornstarch in cold water; serve over rice.

(The Chinese five spice is a special blend of spices, readily available in the spice section. I didn't have any when I made this tonight, so I left it out. We all liked this dish but Spencer thinks the extra spice would be better so we'll probably have it for next time. Also I used ground ginger instead of fresh. I am purposely not posting a picture because this meal wouldn't make a great picture. =) Its yummy, but you just probably wouldn't choose it according to the picture.)
