Good quick basic stir fry recipe. Balsamic vinaigrette gives a tangy flavor. I added a tablespoon of cornstarch to the remaining vinaigrette which enhanced the appearance of this dish. Yummy & pretty!

The taste on this was ok, just not outstanding. We enjoyed it but I think there are much better stir frys out there. Also, this wasn't the prettiest of recipes as the balsamic vinegar and hoisin sauce made everything black in appearance. If you looking for a visually appealing dish, maybe trying white balsamic vinegar with this recipe.
