Ingredients

• 2-4 lbs beef or pork, cubed or 1 (3 lb)  roasting chickens, cut into serving pieces
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 6 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon Accent seasoning
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients, except the oil and water. Let marinade for at least a couple of hours. If you don't have time to let it marinade, it'll be alright to cook it right away. But the flavor is more intense when you let it marinade for a few hours.

2. 2

   When you're ready to cook, heat the oil in a large pot and remove meat from marinade and add to pot. Cook to brown slightly. Add the water to leftover marinade and pour over the meat. Cover and let cook on medium heat about 45 minutes or until the meat is tender.

3. 3

   If you don't want too much sauce left, remove the lid during the last 10 minutes of cooking; otherwise continue cooking with the lid on for more sauce.
