This was terrific. Sugar not needed. Will make it again!

Good, low-cal recipe. Made it with everything except the sugar; substituted edamame for snow peas.

Made this without the vegetables, and substituted dry vermouth for the sherry, lemon for the orange. Sautéed some asparagus separately in a pan of hot olive oil seasoned with pepper, a squeeze of lemon and salt.
