I'm surprised that so many people have given this recipe a bad review. I just made it tonight for my husband and I and our 2 guests and everyone loved it! I didn't have bok choy or baby corn, but I had everything else on hand and even added about 2 tbsp of brown sugar while it was simmering. One of the better stir fry's I've had and I will definitely make it again! :

I cook often and make better-than-average dishes. I wish I would have had a bit more time to fully review the technique on making this dish. By the time your veggies had a bit of time to cook - the chicken has now become overly cooked. The 1 tablespoon of cornstarch is not sufficient to make the sauce thick enough for it to stick to its contents. The flavor is also very bland. After arguing with my husband on how to salvage this dish at 9pm at night, after the baby fell asleep - it became clear this recipe will not be used again. I use foodnetwork's recipes very often and really disappointed in this one. I guess that's life.

It is a little bland but like any other recipe, you can always add/substitute ingredients for what you like. This one really needs some chiles or med. to hot peppers. Just a small amount would really bring out the flavor. To really make this work skip the powdered spices and use whole fresh crushed garlic and lots of fresh grated ginger. Fry the veggies individually, remove and keep warm in an oven then mix together as a final step before serving. Try mandarine orange sections cooked with the chicken and use noodles in place of rice..
