Spicy Oriental Chicken

Submitted by InnerHarmonyNutriti

"I found the original recipe in a Japanese magazine many years ago. I changed it a little to my taste and have made it countless times. It is absolutely delicious! I suggest serving it with brown rice or white rice. You can also add some other veggies such as carrots and shiitake mushrooms."

Simple, quick and delicious. It's hard to beat that on a busy weeknight. I served this over brown rice. The directions were perfect. Thank you for posting! Made for the spring Pick-A-Chef event in the contest and event forum.
