"Recipe as written is bland and too complicated. However, the idea is good and with a few simple tweaks, is a tasty meal! **** To make it taste better try this; Add 1 tsp garlic, 1 tsp ginger, 1 oni..." See moreon, 1 red chilli, 1 red capsicum. **** To make it easier, try this; Chop all veges and chicken. Cook chicken and onion (and salt & pepper)until not pink any more. Remove chicken from pan. I*n same pan stirfry all veges and flavourings until crisp/cooked. Re-add chicken to pan, warm. Pour in peaches & syrup and cook until thickened (only a few minutes). Eat with rice. Tastes great and much easier. "

"This recipe was okay and the combination of peaches, brocolli and chicken was good, but there needed to be more of a sauce. It needs something extra to give it a little kick!..." See more"

"Ok- Yeah this sounds wierd I know; but it was a hit with my 5 yr old son. I read the first review and tried to spice things up a bit. I used a tbs of cinnamon; wich did add a bit of flavor. Also I..." See more used 2 cans of peaches, it made more sauce for the rice. I also left about a quarter cup of the starchy rice water and mixed it into the chicken sauce a bit. This will be a dish we eat when I've run out of everything else. We usually have broccoli, peaches, and chicken stocked."
