I would give this stir-fry a 1 out of 5 stars. It was terrible. The chicken was tough and the vegetables were mushy.

This stir-fry is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili sauce next time.

This stir-fry is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have some cooked chicken in the fridge, so this is a quick and easy meal to throw together.
