 the yummiest Filipino dish!

 I believe when something comes into your life that you love...
you find a way to keep it in your life.

...and you fill your life with nothing but that.
things you love.

delicious,
yummy, finger-licking,
can't have enough of it.
can't stop talking about how good it is,
can't stop smiling
makes you come Alive,
kinda "love".

...food, friendships, experiences, moments.

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."

Loved it
so Ill learn to make it!
and Sometimes its  as simple as asking.  looking a bit further (online). To make it happen.
Asked for the recipe & Voila! here it is:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What you'll need & What to do:

-10-14 wings/drummettes
- 4 to 5 cloves of garlic, minced.
- 1/2 cup soy sauce (recommended filipino-brand soy sauce; silver swan, pamana, datu puti)
- 1/4 cup  vinegar

Steps:
Lay all the chicken pieces/chunks/wings out in a short cooking pot
distribute the soy sauce evenly
do the same with the vinegar and the garlic
Do not mix the sauces, leave as is.
Cook on semi-low heat,Leave for 10 mins, with the lid on
Turn the chicken over, now you can mix the garlic into the sauce
Now leave for 5 mins with the lid on,
on a separate pan, you're gonna saute the chicken until each one is a little bit sticky (you can saute some of the garlic too, from the sauce).
keep the sauce, pour it all over the sauteed chicken and you're done!

**There are many variations,  explore,  look online, check out recipe books,
 ask someone for their favorite to discover your own, what YOU love)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It needs more practice. (I'll admit Ive had waaaaay better haha)
but ill get it.
because most of the time good things require a bit of extra work, patience & even a little practice.
But its usually worth it.
...wait hold on, are you still talking about chicken? or life?

Both.

If life gives you a taste of something delicious
Enjoy it.
Appreciate it.
yes, go back for more

....and don't forget to say Thank you!

ENJOY.
