This dish is perfect when you are craving Chinese take-out, but want a healthier version! It takes just a couple of minutes to throw in your crockpot, and when you’re ready for dinner its even quicker than driving our for pick-up! Talk about an easy dinner. Plus, the aroma of garlic, ginger and soy sauce simmering in the house for hours is heavenly. Serve with a vegetable side for a complete meal!
