Very easy, Thanks. I added a half teaspoon of sesame oil for extra flavor.

    I haven't made this full recipe yet, but I'm rating this for the 'brown sauce' part of the recipe only. I needed a chinese brown sauce racipe for this recipe I was trying out from a box of instant rice. Most chinese brown sauce recipes I found used beef broth which I really can't eat. I followed this recipe's sauce ingreds using 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, and the soy sauce and brown sugar amounts, but only used 1 cup of chicken broth and just under a tbsp of cornstarch, mixing all together in a saucepan and cooking on medium for maybe 20 mins or so until thickened. I refrigerated the leftover sauce and used it again for another stir fry. It was great! I made more because I wasn't sure if I needed more than I had left from before, but I didn't need any extra so I'll be saving the sauce I made fresh for another time. Thanks very much AudreyBG! Hope to try this full recipe sometime soon!

    Excellent tasting! I sliced my chicken up into strips and added stir-fry vegetable mix and served it over noodles. It turned out wonderful. Thanks AudreyBG....

    Very good! Here's my variations: I sliced the chicken breast up into 'planks' for easier serving and added a few drops of sesame oil to the oil I browned them in. I microwaved sliced carrots, frozen broccoli and frozen peas for a few minutes then added them into the sauce with the chicken while it was simmering to finish cooking. I also added a little bit of fresh grated ginger and a few thinly sliced onions. We all liked it and I will be making this again. Thanks!!

    Really good. I served with basmati rice and separately cooked stir fried veggies in ginger hoisin sauce. Very good. Will certainly make good leftovers.

    Very Good! I have made this dish several times and find it great each time. Like Kasha I added ginger and served with Basmati Rice. Will continue to keep this recipe handy.
