SERVES 4
- 1 1/2-2 lbs chicken pieces (drumsticks and wings work best)

- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 4-5 bay leaves
- salt and pepper, and
- paprika, to taste
- Boil chicken pieces in a large pot full of water until runoff of chicken is clear.
- Drain water out and add enough oil to saute chicken and garlic. Brown on all sides. You can do this in shifts if needed.

- Simmer for at least 20 minutes or until chicken is tender.
