Nice flavour and easy to prepare. My only complaint is that I thought it needed more sauce so next time I shall double the sauce. I used all fresh veggies, carrots, broccoli and cauliflower. Thx for the recipe!

I tried this recipe tonight. Everyone loved it. Love the fact that you can change it up by using different meats or veggies. I used a bag of frozen Oriental veggies and chicken. I look forward to making this again and so does the rest of the family. Quick, easy and oh so good!

This is a very good recipe. Adding mushrooms and onions, made it even better. I have been incorporating peanut sauce in my stir-frys, since seeing it in another recipe. Believe it or not, peanut butter works, as a substitute. Just don't overdue it.

We loved the ginger and garlic flavours in this stir-fry, and I loved how easy it was too. I used a combination of leftover and frozen vegetables plus a sliced onion, and used ground turkey instead of chicken breast. I also added a little hoisin sauce and sweet chili sauce to the mix as my kids like a bit of sweet in their stir-fry. Delicious and extremely versatile. Thank you for a keeper!

mmm awesome is right! Delicious and so versatile!! I used a mix of frozen and fresh veggies. Frozen spinach, frozen sweet potato, and fresh cauliflower, mushrooms, and red onion. It is the teriyaki and soy sauces that make the dish, wonderful flavour and of course the garlic!! I used home made turkey stock which also added a nice bit of flavour. I will be making this one anytime I need to use up some veggies!! thanks for posting.
