    Good
    You need Tbsp. of oil to saute the onions & chicken; I also used less molasses & slightly less salt/pepper, also fresh bean sprouts. 5 min. was plenty, then 5 min. after adding 1 tsp. cornstarch in 1/2 c. water. Flavor is definitely zippy! - 5/14/10

    I used pan spray to saute the onions, which saved some calories. I like to slow heat through in order to blend the flavors better, but I'm sure that it was terrific the way you made it also. There can be a lot of variation to this recipe. I fixed the mistake for corn starch, Thanks!!
