Honey Chicken Stir Fry

I don't have a picture to show for this recipe, but what I do have is some full tummies. Husband and I very much liked this stir fry. Even Baby liked it, though he didn't love it quite as much as some of the other things I've prepared stir-fry-wise. This was super easy to put together, and definitely very flavorful as well. Makes a great weeknight meal. I served it over some fresh egg noodles, but rice would work just as nicely.
