    VERY, VERY NICE TASTING! Lemon, ginger, chicken, broccoli ~ That really says it all for me, since the making of this recipe melds those flavors so nicely! The prep took me a bit longer than indicated, but I needed things in place & ready so that all would go smoothly, which it did! I look forward to making this dish again & again ~ Many thanks for sharing it! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Gimme 5 tag]
