i made it with a few changes and really liked it! I wanted more flavor so I used sesame oil in the beginning to fry the chicken etc. Then instead of sugar I added some honey and also a bit white vinegar and ground pepper. I would have added Bok Choy as well but didn’t have it at the moment. Next time for sure! :)

A wonderful, flavourful stir fry!! DH says the best ever!! I left out the sugar and added a tbspn of Hoisin sauce and didn't have mushrooms but did add baby and Shanghai bok choy and some grape tomatoes. Lovely and fragrant with the ginger while cooking. Thanks for posting, sure will be making this one again!!
