“Don't let some of the ingredients fool you -- this spicy shrimp makes a simple, impressive dish, which I usually make for company. For more or less heat, adjust amount of red pepper. Serve over hot steamed rice.” - by FOODGU1

"You have to give anything this fast, healthy and so full of flavor a 5. Note this isn't a recipe for small children or others with a tongue that can't handle heat. I'd cut back on the red pepper qui..." See morete a bit if you want to achieve that. For me, however, the recipes worked perfectly as is.

"This recipe had a similar taste to General Tsao's Chicken found on this site but was much healthier! The recipe is good as is!

I just tried adding pea pods at the end, just until heated through, which was a great asian compliment to the meal. We always serve it over botan rice. A wonderful low fat, low calorie meal!"
