I for one love was thrilled to see this recipe! These are the best...thank you! (Any chance you know how to make the chiken that you wrap in aluminum foil squares...also quite tasty but I haven't been able to find a recipe. I can only find paper chicken which doesn't seem exactly the same). Again, thank you for this one, we'll be having it again tonight!

Excellent flavor - I used "lite" soy and upp[ed the chili-garlic sauce just a wee bit. Be cautious once you have added the soy -it can burn. I served the beans withHoney Ginger roasted chicken, baked potato & shoe string steamed carrots -great combination.

A people's person who never entertains one thing in life -- larger than life EGO of people.
My hobbies are numerous and diverse. They range from being an avid reader to decorating home, loving cats, embroidery, painting, writing poems and letters to friends, endless thinking, collecting candles, music, trying various cuisines and reaching out to people.
I love cooking and devising ways to smash set patterns of cooking. I do not like over use of spices in the cooking and am dead against using readymade or canned ingredients.
Cooking is my favourite prescription for busting all the stress that I accumulate in the work place.
