AKA as "Moo Goo gai pan". Found this recipe about 20 + years ago in a local grocery store flyer. I tweaked it a bit & came up with this.....

This recipe is not very beginner-friendly. There are a lot of steps involved and it can be difficult to keep track of everything.

I found that the chicken was a bit dry. I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some extra spices, such as garlic powder or paprika.
