In a shallow nonmetal dish, combine the chicken, soy sauce, sugar, and pepper. Toss to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. In a Dutch oven, combine the onions, zucchini or squash, carrots, and oil. Cook, stirring, over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, or until the onions are soft but not browned. Add the stock; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Add the chicken and marinade. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. Check by inserting the tip of a sharp knife into 1 cube. Add the tofu, cilantro, and scallions. Cook for 1 minute, or until the tofu is hot. Add the lime juice. Stir well to combine.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
