    This was a tasty, weeknight dinner. We served with jasmine rice and chile crunch.

    I made the vegetarian version with mushrooms and thought it was a bit bland. Also realised I don't like shredded tofu just added to the dish. If I make this again I will fry the tofu first to add a bit of structure and flavour.

    Easy and delicious! My 10-year-old son loved this. We used frozen peas instead of edamame, and 8oz of chicken instead of 4oz. I also left out the garlic and increased the ginger by a bit. We left out the sriracha (for kiddo) but my husband and I added chili crisp to our plates at the end. We like to top dishes like this with fresh shredded carrot for an extra boost of veggie for the kiddo, and I mixed the carrot with parsley (since kiddo also isn't a fan of cilantro). Served with rice, avocado, and sliced cucumber. I cooked a full pound of ground chicken and just took out half before adding the tofu - will be using that for fried rice with the leftover rice tomorrow!

    Very nice and very easy! Used bock choy instead of edamame and increased chicken to 8 oz. The shredded tofu is such a great idea and I'm going to use it in other recipes to substitute for meat.

    Quick, easy, and delicious. Not too spicy for my son. I used 8 oz ground turkey and 3 of us still nearly finished it all, and we had a side of broccoli for extra veg. Next time I might just add more cooked vegetables to this dish. My family usually complains about tofu, but not this time.

    This is just delicious. Easy and quick to make, just a bit of chopping. I thought the toasted sesame oil would be overpowering at 1/4 cup, but not so. My husband and I ate almost the entire dish, although it is meant for four. I think you could successfully substitute shrimp for the chicken or other meats.
