This dish was a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add more ginger and garlic next time.

I made this dish last night and it was delicious! The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The vegetables were cooked just the way I like them, still a little crunchy. The sauce was flavorful and not too salty. I will definitel
