    Aloha!
    I made this for dinner tonight…so tasty! I used thighs and Instead of rice wine vinegar I used one tablespoon of Shaoxing cooking wine. Delicious flavors! Will definitely make this again and try with different veggies. Thank you for sharing!

    I made this just barely following the recipe for guidance and it was just fabulous. I often dont have all the ingredients but make due. I’d make this again. Everybody loved it.
