I love soups and this 1 is one of them that I like to cook
Christopher Strong
Loved the asparagus. A little bland in flavor.

Made this with my Christmas wok, which is non-stick so I used a fraction of the oil, only about 2TB. A very good, basic stir fry that is not spicy but has chinese flavor. I think it would have broad appeal. This may be obvious to others, but there is no mention of chopping the thighs into strips or pieces, which I recommend.
