Very easy and quick recipe. I had everything ready before-hand, as instructed, and it came together so well. The snow peas available in the market were horrible and limp, so I had to skip them this time. The rest of the ingredients were great, and I liked it as is, but in the future I would add a few more ingredients, which will give it more of an Asian flavor - a tsp or two of grated fresh ginger, and a sprinkling of sesame oil over the dish, at the end. Then, for my personal taste - a little hot pepper (flakes or some chile paste would do, too) to kick it up to the next level.

My husband and I have lived in southeast Alaska for nine years now. Before we moved to Alaska we farmed in Iowa and always had fresh beef and pork in our freezer and fresh vegetables from our garden (which we miss very much!) Now that we are on to other adventures our freezer is full of salmon, halibut, shrimp and crab. We love everything about Alaska; hiking in the mountains, fishing in the ocean, wildflowers and of course all the wildlife.
