This recipe to be super good and really easy. Found on Pinterest but easier to follow on this app since the phone won't shut down every few minutes. I doubled the recipe for company, however, the basic recipe will feed four hungry people easy. The meat was tender with an oriental taste. Hope you enjoy as much as we did! ~(o.o)~
