I liked this a lot. Didn't have water chestnuts so I just left them out but left everything else the same. I think this sauce would be good as an orange chicken sauce, actually. Bf wasn't as impressed, but he's picky about fruit flavored foods that aren't dessert. thanks for the recipe!

great for a side dish for a nightly dinner. Added some vermicelli noodles for some added food. Not guest material.

Loved it made it with sesame tilapia. I steamed the broccoli first then followed the recipe. We loved it.

Quick and easy recipe, but my family didn't take to it. The orange flavor is a bit strong. I used this on a stir fry with broccoli, carrots, and zucchini.

I didn't use the water chestnuts as I was making just a single serving, but I think that would make it a better presentation and more of a dish for guests. Because many of the reviewers said the sauce became too thick when added to the skillet, I used the same amount of orange juice called for but only half the cornstarch. Some brown sugar for a bit of sweetness would be good to mellow the sharpness of the orange. My rating would actually be 3.5 for this.

I really didn't like this dish. Three minutes was not enough time to sufficiently cook the broccoli and once I added the orange sauce it immediately turned to orange glue. I had to add more water - probably a cup and a half in the end - while continuing to cook the broccoli. In the end the dish had very little flavor - couldn't taste the soy or the orange flavor. Will definitely not make again.

Pretty tasty...not exactly what I was expecting but still good. I omitted the water chesnuts but I don't think that made much difference.

The orange flavor was too strong for my tastes. Not a very subtle dish, but it's better when served over rice.

Super easy, I skipped the water chestnuts. One note, don't add the sauce mixture if the pan is still on high/medium heat. Yummy!

I'm not really a water chestnut fan, so I left that part out, but other then that, this was pretty good. I used dark soy sauce, some minced garlic, and a little grated orange rind. Very flavourful :)

Not a bad recipe, but it really did need to be seasoned not to mention more soy sauce. Would I make this again? Probably not, but it was worth at least trying, giving the ease of prep.

This wasn't the tastiest, that's for sure. I was surprised..especially with the sesame oil and worcestshire sauce. It was lacking something..not quite sure what though. Maybe it will be better tomorrow?
