Next, add the garlic, lemon zest and pepper and saute for1 minute; then add the soy sauce, lemon juice, sugar and wine.

Step 4

Return the chicken to the pot, reduce heat to low, cover the pot and allow to simmer on low until the chicken is fully cooked through; about 30 minutes.  Remove chicken to a serving platter and spoon sauce over chicken.
