    Chicken loves ginger and sesame in a stir fry... or IMO it does!! So try:

    1 clove garlic crushed
    1-2 tsp fresh grated ginger
    1 tbsp sesame seeds
    1 tbsp honey
    1 tbsp oil - I use rice bran oil or grapeseed oil but that is my health conscious ways... whatever works for you!
    *if there isn't enough flavour for you in that, you can add 1 tbsp soy sauce as well and I always add a bit of chilli to my stir fry's... I have a jar of crushed chilli in the fridge**

    OK, the easiest home-made sauce I know is honey, soy and garlic with a little chicken stock. About 1/4 cup of soy with 1/2 cup of chicken stock and honey and garlic to taste (about 1 tbs of honey and 2 cloves of garlic is my choice!) You can mess around with it, add grated onion, herbs, ginger or a little cornflower to thicken and then it's great as a sauce for wings or drumsticks.
    Christy's recipe sounds great too though!

    Obviously I am the lazy one here But I seriously just throw in a good glob of Hoi Sin and a nice big splash of soy about 2 minutes before I take it off the heat. Simple (and lazy!) but very yummy....

    thanks ladies.

    normally i just grab a packet of premade sauce from the shops. but since money has gotten tight i need to start making my own from scratch instead of being lazy
