Saucy Garlic Chicken

"After several unsucessful stir-fry attempts, I came up with this recipe adapted from several different sources. It's easy and just the right blend of falvors for my family. You can use whatever vegetables you like, but I use onions, broccoli, and water chestnuts."

  1. This was easy to make & a nice weeknight meal. I reduced the amount of red pepper flakes by half and used carrots, green beans, onions, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, & water chesnuts. Next time I will make additional sauce to stir in at the end so there is more sauce to ladle on the rice. Made for ZWT6~ Asia. Thank you for sharing your recipe!
     
  2. Mmmm! This was so tasty! I did change one thing, however: I baked the chicken instead of pan frying. I cooked the chicken plain in a 375F oven for about 20 minutes, took it out and brushed it with the sauce, and then returned it to the oven to bake for another 10-15 minuts. It came out unbelievably tender and juicy. Thanks for posting!
     
  3. Excellent!! This recipe has great flavor. I added broccoli, a yellow bell pepper, and onion. I will add more veggies next time. I served it over brown rice. Thanks!
