This was a very colorful dish and the chicken was lovely! I served it over white rice. We really enjoyed all the different textures this had to offer but we did find it to be a touch too sweet. Next time I think I will cut back on the sugar a touch and maybe increase the soy sauce. A little more sour for the sweet. Wonderful Saturday night feast! Thanks for sharing it with us <b>Marsha D.</b>!

Hello to everyone! :)
<br>
<br>This is of me in the year 2007 and my Icon is my two boys.
<br> I am from Lakewood Wa. but I am orginally from Hickory North Carolina, where I was born and raised.I moved to Washington to marry my second husband, who I met on the internet from a dating site called kiss.com. We both enjoy fishing. Mineral Lake is where we go on the weekends during the fishing season. I talk about going to the lake alot but its just because I love to get away from the big city since I'm a country girl at heart. I enjoy this website and I really love the new recipes I have found. Did I mention I love this site!! ? :)
