This is a combination of two recipes from taste.com.au that the DH and I combined to come up with something we both really like. The night we made it we had several dishes on the go and I was prepping for them as well so times are estimated to if you were only cooking this dish UPDATE - o'kay making this once again I have added other vegies tonight which were some julienned carrot, broccoli and cauliflower flowerettes and snow peas and served on top of some hokien noodles - just a variation. ANOTHER UPDATE - we tried this tonight Have now tried with beef, rump strips (possibly could be better to beat out and cut into strips though we think. depending on the quality of your rump) and added 3/4 teaspoons chinese five spice to step 2 but would suggest 1/2 teaspoon) but still thoroughly enjoyed and we are smacking our lips still 2 hours later.

Wow, this dish was amazing! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was perfectly sweet, sour, and spicy. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of plums, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The plums added a really unique and delicious flavor to the dish. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts, and I added a bit of ginger and garlic to the sauce. The result was a delicious and flavorful stir-fry tha

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and overcooked. The sauce was also too sweet for my liking.
