While broccoli florets and chunks of red pepper give this dish plenty of color, it's the fresh gingerroot, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil that round out the flavor. -Mary Relyea of Canastota, New York

Family loved it. I served it with Asian ribs and brown rice pilaf. Wonderful.

This was so delicious but it really only served the two of us not 5. The red peppers and ginger just made it so tasty. I can see us making this again and again. I forgot to add in the almonds....opps next time. There will be a next time.

This is very good! It's great for a quick dinner before shiftwork!

Made this for the first time tonight. It was easy for my 7 year old to help with and because he got to be mommy's helper, he actually tried all the veggies - even the red peppers and LOVED it! This one we will definitely make again.

It's reallly, really good...

but don't try making it in a 6-inch skillet. Just doesn't work. :)

We cook this at least once every couple of weeks, it's so simple and so good. This last time we didn't have any gingerroot, I'd have to say I didn't really miss it.
