It was okay, but not outstanding. Good in a pinch though. Quick to throw together. I used fresh broccoli, and added a bit of water/cornstarch at the end to thicken the sauce. -
I made this with about 1/4 to 1/2 cup each of fresh vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, onions, red peppers, snow peas) and it turned out really great. It is very quick and tasty. -
Didn't use mixed veggies, but I will next time. Very flavorful and appetizing. The honey is the perfect thing to sweeten up the meal. I generally don't like chicken, but I liked this. -
My family and I really enjoyed this recipe. It was quick and easy which I love for a weeknight dinner. I did add a tsp of cornstarch to thicken the sauce a little bit and next time I make this I will double the sauce. I served this over soba noodles and sprinkled few toasted sesame seeds on top. Thanks for the recipe.

I used a fresh bag of stir fry veggies and added some mushrooms. The sauce is great. A perfect quick dinner! Thanks!

This was a terrific and FAST meal. I served over crisp rice noodles instead of rice. I liked the inclusion of the water chestnuts because they added crunchiness. I did add 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch as the sauce was a bit thin. Thank you for sharing your recipe!

I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
