3 tablespoons vinegar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1 ripe tomato, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 whole cinnamon stick
1 whole star anise

Directions
Mix the chicken, vinegar, soy sauce, tomato, peppercorns, garlic, cinnamon stick, star anise, and bay leaves in a 2-quart pot. Allow the ingredients to marinate for 30 minutes.
