This recipe has the advantage of not having to slice anything at all and being fast to cook.

I made this with a few chicken strips I had lying around.  Probably would have gone well over some rice.

The original recipe calls for (presumably?) tossing the sauce in like a salad, but I think I would prefer a think peanut sauce layered on top.  To do this, increase the peanut butter and soy sauce in the sauce and wayyyy decrease the garlic powder.

Crunchy peanut butter could be a nice twist.
