Lol I lightly coated medium diced chicken in egg and in a flour & corn starch mix, pan fry and then tossed it in the sauce, pared it white rice and roasted asparagus. Wow it came out just like if I went to a Chinese buffet! Lol saved me $15 per person! Cooking can be so easy and fun if you want it to be! Happy cooking y'all! :-)
