Quick and tasty

My husband and I really liked this for a simple, work night dinner.  I'm not a huge fan of water chestnuts so next time I will sub bean sprouts.  This dish would also be great with shrimp instead of chicken.  We had some pan fried mini wontons on the side.  Will definitely make again.

Very tasty! I omitted the chicken and the peanuts, and I used a pre-chopped bell pepper mix. Worked great as a side dish.

This is one of my go-to recipes; I am in love with the flavors. I usually make a little extra sauce, but otherwise follow the recipe exactly.

Sour dressing, noodles did not mix well with vegetables and chicken. One of the least good recipes I've ever tried from CL.
