My husband adores this dish, and I love how good it makes the house smell! The mild, tangy, salty-sweet sauce with fresh ginger and garlic is delicious with rice or noodles. —Julie Ko, Rogers, Arkansas

This was very tasty and the meat was very tender. I will probably use a little less soy sauce next time.

We loved this recipe! Even my toddler seemed to enjoy it. If you like more kick just add more of the red pepper flakes.

Very tasty and so tender. The only odd thing is the two people in our house that don't care for asian flavors, loved the taste. The two that do, did not care for it! I made a half recipe - worked perfectly.

Mild sauce is right, almost to the point of being bland. There is subltle Asian flavor but it was lacking something but the meat fell off the bone and the flavor wasn't bad just mild. Next time I might try playing with the spices a bit and see if I can't kick it up a notch.
