One big mistake in this recipe is that Chinese chefs never use Teriyaki sauce. Chinese only use Soy sauce. Teriyaki sauce is Japanese copy of the Chinese soy sauce and does not taste the same.

If I had a nickel for everytime someone has asked about nutritional values on here I could pay off my mortgage. There are hundreds of sites on here that you can type in the ingredients and get the values and calorie counts if you are that concerned.
