This is a great recipe, I used some asian stir fry seasoning and it was great!! It's nice because you can really add whatever veggies you have on hand, and change it up to add some variety. - 1/28/09

I made this, but I used broccoli instead of snap peas and I used low sodium teriyaki sauce instead of soy sauce. I also added in some water chestnuts and yellow squash. It was DELICIOUS!!! - 1/21/09

One of my favorite type of recipes. Versatile, tasty & easy. I add whatever veggies in fridge ... broccoli, cauli, garlic, celery, bean sprouts ... which increases nutrition. Also use less rice with more veggies. - 1/1/09

Stirfries are so easily altered to fit anyone's taste or dietary requirements. If you're pressed for time, you can find frozen stir-fry vegetable mixes. The store I shop at has at least 5 different mixes. I use teriyaki instead of soy sauce and I marinate the meat overnight. - 1/22/09

Keep the optional soy sauce except make it low sodium. Then add 1 tablespoon peanut butter and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes and it becomes a Thai dish. - 1/16/09

Simple and quick and tastes good. I cooked the meat and vegetables separately and took it to work for lunch. I used a pouch of Uncle Ben's microwave brown rice and it turned out great. - 1/24/09

had it with low sodium teryaki sauce.. and also tried it with low sodium soy sauce. I liked the teryaki sauce version much more! Also replaced the snap green beans with brocolli and omitted the onion (just added extra peppers!) I loved this & I'm glad I doubled the recipe cause I loooved it - 5/14/10

I made this tonight and love it but I changed it just a little . I used broccoli instead of the snap beans. I also added some minced garlic and Italian seasoning and 1/2 cup low fat low sodium chicken broth . I used whole grain spaghetti ,not rice.Too much for one meal for sure. I'll make it often - 1/18/09

The one cup of rice is already cooked. Before boiling it should be 1/4 - 1/3 cup. Boiling a full cup of rice will yield between 3 and 4 cups of cooked rice! - 1/29/17

I made this all the time and use whatever veggies are in the frig - mushrooms, peppers and sugar snaps are a staple in my house. A little cyanne pepper for some heat goes a long way too. My 18 year son never used to eat veggies now asks for this all the time! - 3/4/10

This is yummy, but I find if you add fresh garlic and a bit of fresh chilli (if you like it hot) when cooking the chicken and a bit of fresh corriander at the end.......it tastes superb!! Really gets the taste buds going......and NO extra calories! - 1/10/09

I thought it was disgusting whatever you do don't put as much snap peas in the dish as it states and I felt that the soy sauce didn't really give it any flavor....def going to try to work the kinks out of this recipe - 1/19/12

This is one of my favorite dishes to whip up at home.. my wife is sick of it!! I like to do the same with lean pork chops cut into strips or chunks. I also use Yoshida's Gourmet Sauce to make it an extra special dish! P.S. Venison loin works well too! - 11/29/11

I made this with the tenderloin, and it was actually good. I did find that the veggies stay crisp if you don't cook them all the way. I also cooked the meat before the veggies to have that flavor - 11/4/11

I make this Stir Fry too. I add a bit of chicken boullion. ("Better than Boullion" -in the jar, it has less sodium and lasts forever in the fridge). I sometimes stir in Hoisin Sauce, or Red Chile Paste - so good! Teriyaki, instead of soy, and we skip the Rice, for our Low-Carb version - 8/23/11
