    WOW. Just WOW. This recipe is really incredible! I made it with some leftover chicken that I cubed and tossed in, and it was phenomenal. I had to stop my husband from going back for 3rds! It's also extremely easy to make. Definitely adding this guy to the rotation. - 2/7/14

    Excellent! I didn't have chile-garlic sauce, so I used cayenne, and next time I will add less water to make the sauce thicker, but this is definitely a keeper. - 1/29/13

    "abuot" is "about" in this misspelled version.

    Not sure if I can use regular processed peanut butter, but I"m going to try it. - 1/28/13

    I tried it from Eating Well.com as well. It's delicious! I used chunky peanut butter for extra crunch (it only made a difference of about 10 calories per serving), and fresh ginger. Very Yummy! - 1/9/12

    This was good! I cut the recipe in half and still managed to get 3.5 servings out of it. I measured one cup servings, which was plenty! I had green beans and broccoli on hand so I added that. It's going in my favorites. Thanks for sharing! - 10/8/10

    Found this first on Eating Well.com and just made it. Turned out wonderful! IF you want a little more spice add some red pepper flakes. - 8/27/10
