This is good - it's even better if you add the same amount of cornstarch, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to the water before adding. This gives the vegetables some flavor as well as the chicken and makes a nice thick sauce.

This is the best American made stir-fry. My kids love it, I make it with brown rice cooked in chicken broth. This is a healthy meal we could eat every week. Thank you.

Yumm! The chicken is flavored well but the sauce does turn out a little bland. After we spooned it onto our plates, my family sprinkled it with soy sauce to season it better. But overall it was a hit and I would definitely make this recipe again.

I make this recipe frequently! I omit the celery because I didn't have it when I first made it and liked it without. I also use chicken broth instead of the granules. So easy to make and so tasty!!

No sauce and very bland.

I did add some cornstarch mixed with soysauce in at the last step to help it thicken up.

My family isn't a normally a fan of home-made Asian food, but this recipe was a winner! I added extra chicken and some zucchini and I only added about 3/4 cup of water near the end. This recipe worked out very nicely.

Pretty Good

The last step never happened, never thickened, turned out more like a soup. Add salt and pepper.
