"My teenage son and husband LOVED this. They don't care for breading so I didn't flour it first, just pan fried it... Also I did not have green onions or lime juice.. so I made it with 4TBSP lemon and ..." See more2TBSP orange juice. They felt this was better than restaurant quality. "

I pour..." See moreed the sauce over the rice and broc and sprinkled with slivered almonds. Excellent dish!"

"This recipe is FANTASTIC! It was so quick and easy. I wasn't sure before I made it if I would like the blend of juices with the garlic and onion, but it was just wonderful. It tastes like something..." See more you'd pay big bucks for in a fancy restaurant and is the dish I would serve to friends that I wanted to impress."
