This recipe was terrible! Shame on you Betty Crocker. I prepared this recipe for my husband and son and was so embarrassed after serving it! It was bland and looked unappealing. I followed the recipe to the letter (and even tried to save it by 'doctoring' it ... but quickly tossed it in the disposal. Such a waste of effort and chicken! Obviously this was not a 'tested' recipe. Doubtful that I will trust BC website for future recipes.

This was DELICIOUS!! .....BUT...I doubled everything and marinated the cut up chicken in oyster sauce, garlic and ginger,then added more garlic,ginger and onion to the oil when cooking the chicken. The rest was pretty much the same as the recipe. EXCELLENT!!

This was the blandest thing ever made. I even added way more spice than the recipie dictated. My husband couldn't finish eating it, and we did not save the leftovers. First time I've disliked a recipie from this site that much.
