This had a very nice flavor - tangy, sweet and sour. It was very enjoyable. We liked the sauce so much that we ended up drizzling a little over the bok choy I had prepared to serve with this. Delicious! I skipped the oil and just added everything into the chicken and sauce pan and it worked out nicely. Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Spring 09
