Made it to my best of 2009 cookbook. Fabulous entree. I used fresh ginger and siracha sauce (instead of pepper flakes) and glad I did. Served with Near East brand rice, Sesame and Ginger flavor and seemed like it was created to go with this recipe. Fabulous!! Salty, but salty doesn't bother me, if it does should use reduced sodium broth and soy sauce.

Very good! I made it exactly as posted minus the optional pepper flakes, while I do like a bit of spice I thought it might have hidden the other great flavors. I used a home-made chicken broth that was probably less salty than store bought chicken stock, if using that you would probably want to use low-sodium soy.

This is very good. I had cut the recipe in half as that there only 2 of us and I used fresh grated ginger, otherwise I had followed the recipe. There wasn't any leftovers, the sauce was very nice on the rice as well. It wasn't too salty for us, but we do like things on the salty side so those that don't things as salty probably should use low sodium broth instead. Will make again in future.

I served this to company last night and it was enjoyed by all. We all agreed that it needed a little kick, so next time I'll add some crushed red pepper flakes. I did add some green peppers and orange peppers to the mix and doubled the sauce mixture. Great flavor combination. Served this over rice with some steamed carrots for a great meal. Thanks mikekey.
