This was really good - more flavorful than I was expecting. I'll definitely make it again, but I might try reducing the molasses a little and possibly adding some garlic. Thanks for sharing.

I am trying this recipe but altering it slightly. Using honey instead of molasses (I feel molasses is far too strong for this), adding a touch of garlic, reducing the amount of peanut oil and am using an asian stirfry frozen veggie mix with soybeans in it to make this a main dish served over brown rice. I am not sure exactly how it will turn out, but having made similar things before, it sounds like a hit. I love using the mandarin oranges as part of the sauce as I don't usually keep orange juice on hand but those I do...this makes it an easy, easy dish to whip up.

Very good, & easy too. I toasted the sesame seeds before adding them.

It was okay, but I didn't feel that the falvours really married well. I don't think I'd make it again

This was a good recipe. I would make it again. I did use sesame oil instead of the peanut oil. The sauce was a little bit bitter--maybe I cooked it too hot and burned the molasses a little--not sure. Overall, a good recipe.

Didn't like this dish--the flavors of the sauce don't complement the broccoli--everything felt like it was clashing.

I am not sure why, but ours had a bitter taste to it and no one would eat it. Aside from the bitterness, the flavors blended together well.

Nice recipe, easy to make, interesting concept. Maybe because of the way I measured it, I found the molasses flavor a little strong. If I do this again I would reduce the molasses to one tablespoon (overflowing). I would also reduce the sesame seeds to one tablespoon.

Sorry but this recipe doesn't even beat plain buttered broccoli. The oranges don't do a thing for it. I'll go back to adding a cheesy sauce like Cheez whiz with salsa.

This was fabulous! My husband even went back for seconds (and he NEVER has seconds on broccoli). My teenage daughter loved it too! I added some green onion right before adding the sauce. Turned out great!
