  3. We made this last night and holy cow.....SO good. The chicken was beautiful, although my husband said we should have marinated it even longer, but the NOODLES! My son didn't really like them, but what does he know? He's six!

  4. I made this dish yesterday....YUMMA!!! It was delish! The chicken had a wonderful flavor and I did like the noodles, however I would add more veg next time i.e. water chestnuts, snow peas, mushrooms...And do err on the side of less w/the sesame oil....it is such a strong flavor..I did just shy of a 1/4 cup....and that was plenty! Thanks for sharing!
