This fabulous dish is a must-have on your weekly meal planner. I’m serving it over steamed cabbage to savor every bit of the sweet Asian glaze. It’s so yummy this way and is fiber rich. Or, you could serve it over brown rice. Each skinny serving has just 193 calories, 2 grams of fat and 5 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS.
