This was good, but agree with one of the reviews that there is way too much soy. When I made it I cut the soy with some water and added a little more orange juice. Also added a little fresh ginger and about a tablespoon of seasoned rice vinegar. Next time I plan on using about 1/4 cup of soy and add more o.j. BTW...makes a ton. Going to marinate chicken breasts in the sauce for the grill later this week.<br />
