  1. this was a wondefull dish.My whole family enjoyed we added 3 baby bok choy and some left over stir fry veggies served with brown rice i made with low fat chicken broth.Thanks for posting.
     
  2. Divine dish. I found this sensational recipe by doing a Zaar search based on ingredients. This looked like a winner, and it sure is. I had to make a few little tweaks because of what I had on hand -- 1/2 pound of homegrown mushrooms, a pound of skinless chicken thighs, a bunch of baby bok choy (but no red pepper) and 2 fresh Thai hot chillies instead of red pepper flakes. I love sesame oil, so added an extra 1/2 teaspoon. Hubby's comment -- and he doesn't give praise lightly -- was 'Jolly good!' And then he scoffed the tiny bit of leftovers for lunch today. Thanks so much for posting.
     
  3. This is perfect with the chicken, but would be just as wonderful without the chicken. The only thing I would change is adding more bok choy.
     
  4. This was awesome! Everyone cleaned their plates even my two little boys! Its a keeper will make it again.
     
  5. No leftovers-always a good sign!Family loved it thank you, will be making again!
