I had visions of a Chinese style dish. However, it became overcooked and way too salty. I would recommend more stir fry style of cooking ( hot and fast)to keep fresh color of veggies. To cut the saltiness, make a cornstarch thickener and then add soy to taste and color preference.

I was pleasantly suprised by how good this recipe was. I thought it may come out too dry but it did not and was very good. Even my picky husband really liked it. The only additions I made was to add fresh mushrooms, celery and snow peas (instead of frozen peas). This recipe will definitely be a keeper.

This is wonderful. It tasted even better the following day. Next time, I'll add a dash or two of Tabasco to the sauce.
