This was very good, but I changed a few things, so I couldn't rate this a 5, but good base recipe. I used chicken instead of beef. I used 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce and 3/4 cup water and added one beef boulion cube. then I used about 3 tbl spoons of brown sugar, added about 2 cups of broccoli and used no onions. Then in the end I added a mixture of 2 tbl spoons water with 1 tbl spoon corn starch then poured it into the chicken, broccoli and sauce to thicken it up a bit. Served with white rice. Was absolutely wonderful!

The flavor has way too much soy sauce in it. It needs more sugar added or less soy sauce.

I recommend giving this recipe a try if you are serving it over a seasoned rice stir fry, since it has no sauce of its own. I used some dried Annaheim chile's from my garden instread of cayenne pepper, otherwise followed the recipe exactly and would make it again. Nice to be able to make it yourself and control the fat content.

For as simple as this recipe is to make, This is full of flavor and great with rice. Double the sauce. I also added broccoli florets that I microwaved before adding at the end.

FANTASTIC!!!! All I did differently was DOUBLE the sauce, and add in lots of veggies: broccoli, snap peas, green peppers, anything would work. The chicken was SUPER tender, and the flavor was excellent! This is going into the rotation of regular recipes I make.

Great base recipe that you can do so much with! It was a little bland for my taste, so i added more garlic, a little black pepper, chili paste, and a little honey. (the honey tied it all together!) I think next time i will use pineapple or orange juice instead of water just for a little more flavor! Thanks!

Excellent and easy! I substituted olive oil for veg oil and added crushed peanuts and sesame as suggested in some of the reviews. YUMMY, hubby loved it too :)

Made this tonight for a quick dinner to feed my hubby and two toddlers. Based on reviews doubled the sauce... I didnt get to eat right away so when I heated it up twenty mins later I thought it reduced a little too much and was kind of salty even being served over buttery rice. My hubs said he liked it right away though... Next time i may just add a little chicken stock when reheating to cut the salty! Awesome quick meal though
