"This is from "World's Healthiest Foods". I tried this because it is so easy and quick to make. The Asparagus is wonderful, too. It fits most any health diet, though it did'nt include nutrition data with it. This is one I'll be making often. I used powdered ginger, as I don't usually have fresh ginger on hand."

A great dish for those days you don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Great flavors and easy, too. I subbed boneless, skinless chicken thighs for the breasts, but otherwise made as written. Loved the fresh ginger with the asparagus. Served over fettecine. Made for Spring 2014 PAC.

This was so simple, so easy, but with a big payoff! Delicious! I made exactly as directed, except probably a bit heavier on the red pepper flakes. The flavors were great together & we loved the kick of spice. This is a great recipe to keep handy. We'll be making it again. Thanks for sharing it, ohgal! Made & enjoyed for Fall 2009 Pick A Chef. You were adopted! :) http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=310505&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

That's why I love RecipeZaar. I never fail finding recipes that suit the amount of time and energy that I have.</p>
