EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If desired, substitute chicken breast strips for stir-fry, for the chicken breast tenders, or you can cut boneless chicken breasts into 1/2-inch-thick strips instead.

Made this for the second time tonight for dinner. I used chicken thighs I had on hand and sugar snap peas fron the farmers market. Yummy! The crunch comes from the snap peas as they are tender crisp. I always add chicken stock to cook the rice for added flavor and added 2 T. cornstach to the water and teryaki to thicken the sauce. This is a winner. LOVE IT. Also, very generous portions for the calorie count.

Perhaps the crunch comes from the carrots and snap peas? I like your idea about the cashews. How about crispy "chow mein" noodles instead of rice? Some small chopped broccoli would also add a bnit of crunch, now that I think about it. I think there are several possibilities to be explored. I look forward to trying this recipe!

Sounds wonderful where does the CRUNCH come in? Maybe if I added rice noodles or cashews.
