Was unsure about how this would turn out as there were a couple of bits in the recipe which were not the way I would usually handle the ingredients. But then that’s the point! Really unusual dish and the whole family loved it.

It's great to hear that this dish was a pleasant surprise and went down a treat with the whole family!

5/5

Very tasty and tender. I was nicely surprised with the meal. :)

We're so glad to hear that this dish was a pleasant surprise - happy spicing!

5/5

Very tasty the chicken was so tender and the rice cooked in stock delicious. The sauce had a really fresh taste. Certainly a good way to wake up the taste buds!

We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed the flavours in this dish - mouthwatering by name and mouthwatering by nature!

5/5

What a fantastic and relatively easy meal to make. The flavours in this meal are out of this world, there is a "just right" amount of a kick to it, not too much so you can't taste the actual meal but enough to ensure its not "a bland boring supermarket style" attempt. I'm so glad I bought 2 of these packs as I'm looking forward to making it again. The instructions are so simple to follow i was a bit worried that i was going to spoil the meal but they guided me through so well - thanks for making it idiot proof to make - this would be ideal if anyone was to go on TV and star on the "Dinner Date" type shows - i bet you'd win using this recipe!!!! Top class!!!!!!

We are so happy to hear how much you loved this dish, Greg - they don't call it mouthwatering chicken for nothing!

19/3/22 - This was a very tasty Chinese dish that we both enjoyed. Will probably do again at some point.

Great to hear how much you enjoyed the tongue-tingling flavours in this dish, Andy!

3/5

Lacked a bit in depth of flavour and very oily. Wouldn’t buy again.

Sorry to hear that this isn't one of your favourites, Catrin - thanks for your feedback!
