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

<p>Born and bred in Singapore but currently living and working in Shanghai. Loves travelling and cooking, especially if its for the ones i love! Truth be told, there are few I enjoy cooking for as much as my partner who never cease to shower me with compliments with whatever I lay on the table! The sweetest man whose best dish thus far is his self-concorted mango prawn salad he's absolutely proud of, except he's not telling! <br /> <br />Really glad I came across this webbie by chance! Used to love tearing random recipes off magazines, and has recently took up experimenting recipes myself, so this is a great place for me to compile and store my dog-earred, gravy-stained recipes! It is a happy find considering one of my favourite pastime includes browsing and drooling over cookbooks at bookstores! I love that everyone's sharing here and kudos to other contributors who are definitely making me look like a real chef!</p>
