    My fiance and I really liked this recipe! I used PAM instead of oil and used a little corn starch to thicken the sauce a little more.
    I think all we would do different is add more hot sauce because we like it extra spicy. - 1/25/09

    Excellent! I didn't use salt or pepper & omitted the ginger because we don't care for it. I also used olive oil because that's all I had. Thank you for such a wonderful recipe! (when 2x recipe, don't double soy sauce. It becomes too salty) try using 7 or 8 T tab. but increase sweet cuz 2 salty - 9/21/14

    This was really good! I didn't add the hot sauce and only put a sprinkle of powdered ginger to suit my family and also tossed in some frozen brocolli and a can of sliced mushrooms, since that was all I had on hand and it came out great! Next time I will have to try the cornstarch to thicken. - 6/9/10

    It was excellent, I used ground ginger and ground garlic and chicken wings. I would have this receipt again next time your way or with boneless skinless chicken thighs. - 8/20/09

    This was fabulous! I've made it twice now and my family loves it! The first time I made it with pork tenderloin chunks - to die for! The second time I used chicken - Just as yummy. I added water chestnuts, red and yellow bell peppers and sugar snap peas to it. powdered Ginger works fine too. - 6/19/08

    This was well liked by everyone in the family! I added some sweet peppers and fresh spinach with the sauce b/c I had them. Served it with rice noodles and broccoli. Very good and will make again. - 12/11/07
