Chicken with Sherry-Soy Sauce

So D said this was veryy easy to make.  It was really good. But we thought the sauce needed to be thicker or the chicken marinated, or the chicken made in pieces, so that the sauce was more on the chicken  (all are viable options in the future).  Overall would have again.  We had with spaghetti noodles.
