Outrageous Hot and Sour Garlic Sauce

This stuff is like a karate chop to your taste buds. It’s sour, garlicky flavor demands your immediate attention before quickly mellowing into an intriguing tapestry of flavors. Wonderful as a dipping sauce or spooned over grilled chicken or fish. I fashioned this from a garlic chicken recipe I found on the internet. The garlic chicken wasn't a keeper but it gave me the idea for this sauce.  Yum.

½ cup rice vinegar
½ cup chicken broth
10 cloves garlic, chopped (if the cloves aren’t large use up to 15)
2 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon onion-herb seasoning mix (such as Mrs. Dash)
3 large bay leaves
2 tablespoons corn starch mixed in 3 tablespoons of water

Mix all except the cornstarch in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain and return strained sauce to pan. Thicken to your liking with the corn starch mixture.
