The best recipe on 'zaar. So fresh and filling. Loved it. I used brown rice and broccoli too, but no onions (picky boyfriend). I am planning on sharing this and making it again soon. Thanks for posting.

    My children do not like green pepper, so I used broccoli instead. I also used 1 1/2 tsp of fresh grated ginger as we have plenty of that. Unanimous raves for this dish. It will be made often at our house. Thank you for posting.

    Everyone loved this one! Nice thick sauce and delightful, sweet taste. Plus i don't agree that it's time consuming, it was done and gone in no time :D Thanks for sharing

    Quick and delicious dinner! Only change I made was to use fresh ginger. Sauce is simple yet flavorful. If crisper veggies are desired, can saute them separately and add to chicken and sauce before serving. Thanks, LTF!
