Easy chicken dish and quite tasty, too! I made this in my pressure cooker using boneless skinless chicken thighs (our preference). After 10 minutes the meat just fell apart and I added carrots (leftover from another night's dinner) and a can of water chestnuts. Will definitely make this one again! Thanks for posting this Marie!

I used one bag of cocktail shrimp instead of chicken, because somehow I ran out of breasts and didn't realize it. I thought this recipe sounded so good and so I thought I'd try it with shrimp! I withheld the 1/2 cup broth and cornstarch and just soaked the shrimp in the cold sauce for about 45 minutes. I put the shrimp in another bowl and brought the sauce to a boil. I then added the remaining broth/cornstarch and cooked that until it thickened. I added the shrimp and just brought it to a boil and served it immediately. It was delicious! I served it with "Mean Chef's Perfect Rice Everytime" Recipe #53520.
