No thanks... Instead I browned my chicken in a pan with olive oil, and then added all the other ingredients. I also added a small can of pineapple chunks with the sauce and an extra cup of water to make the sauce the right consistency with how much corn starch it called for.   Came out pretty good. Given those changes. Can't say it's even close to the same recipe, but I used the base so...","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2021-01-27","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"RedBoomerang"},"reviewBody":"Made this for the family a few nights ago.  I made it exactly as written, but the sauce seems a little flat and one-dimensional.  Needs to have about 1\/4 tsp of red pepper flakes added to the simmering sauce, need to use fresh ginger instead of ground if you have it, and I definitely thought it needed some acid (I'll have to try Gail's suggestion of rice vinegar - sounds like that's just what it needed).  Oh, and 1 TBSP of cornstarch is really excessive - 1 tsp should suffice.  I had to thin the sauce after all of that cornstarch.  All of that aside, (I added cayenne after the fact) my family adored this recipe!  My 11yo even stole my leftovers for lunch the next day!!!  (she's such a brat! )  Definitely adding this to the regular rotation!  P.S.  Forgot to mention that the thought of microwaved chicken horrifies me, so I browned the chicken in a pan with cooking spray, removed that and added red bell peppers and cooked those for a few minutes, added the sauce ingredients, then added the chicken back in.
