calories per serving,19 gr fat) (note) The last time I made this, I doubled
the sauce amount. I cooked the vegetables and removed them to a bowl;
heated the meat in the wok and removed it to the bowl. I put only 1/4 cup
of water in the doubled sauce. Placed the sauce in the wok and after it
started to thicken, I added chicken broth until the sauce was the right
consistency. Then add the vegetables and meat. Toss gently to coat with
sauce.
