I'm making this tonight but noticed recipe ingredients do not call for celery but the instructions do. Think I'll add about 1/2 cup celery.
Thanks for the comment. I agree it should be 1/2 cup celeries along with carrots. Hope you have enjoyed this dish, happy cooking :-)
Having trouble pinning your Chicken and Pea Pods recipe :(
Have you been having issues on your end?
I just made it tonite for dinner and it was delish! Thanks for posting!
Thanks for your comment, and we will be looking into the cause of this issue as soon as possible. So happy to hear that you enjoyed the dish, and happy cooking :)
Thank you for the recipe. I prepped night before since I had to cook in the morning to take to a sick friend who requested this very thing. With everything washed, chopped and ready to go it took me about 30 minutes cook time. I used powdered ginger and no sherry.
I would not use powdered ginger in place of fresh. It's not the same. Also, you can use rice wine instead of sherry.
