Excellent flavor, Quick & Easy. I got everything measured and ready ahead of time then it took minutes to prepare. Defiitely a do again recipe! I used skinless breasts and Marsala wine instead of sherry. I added the snow peas last and cooked them for about i minute. We both enjoyed our dinner thanks Evie*

Fantastic sooo good I followed the recipe but added extra veg.. I would only add extra soy due to own family's taste. Thanks for sharing love it

This was great. It was so mild but full of flavor. Easy and quick too. I didn't use cashews because of an allergy. I used half white wine and half mirin in place of the sherry. We served it with rice and it was gone immediately. Thanks!

OMG Evie, this just hit the spot! We enjoyed this immensely! It is one of my favorite comfort foods! Made it with chicken breasts, used low-sodium tamari & added crushed red pepper flakes and it was great! This recipe is easily doubled. Thank you for a lovely meal! Served it with jasmine rice. Thanks for posting, Manami ;)

This is a great, simple, quick recipe that is a hit with my family. I substituted chicken tenders for the thighs and it was delicious. This is bookmarked for future reference! Thanks for sharing, Evie!
