    This was really easy to make and has great flavor! My only omission was honey cause I didn't have any on hand- used a little brown sugar. Honey would probably be waaay better. Ether way, so so good!

    This was excellent! I followed other recommendations and tossed the chicken with some cornstarch before pan frying it. I also added the ginger to the sauce since it didn't indicate where to add it and threw in a clove of garlic for good measure. It was very tasty and just like chinese take-out : My husband was impressed!

    I doubled the sauce and found it just a bit too much but if I hadn't it would have been not enough. Remember when you are making a dish like this, the vegetables should be served still crisp. It wouldn't kill it to add pineapple chunks or tomato wedges. Dust the chicken chunks in corn starch before cooking to give the sauce something to hold on to.

    Loved this recipe. did need at least double sauce. easy to swap out the vegetables-my personal favorite is bell peppers, jalapenos and onions. my fiance, who loves the unhealthy restaurant version, said he liked this better!

    I followed this recipe almost exactly (doubled the sauce like others suggested. I used one large green bell pepper and two smaller red bell peppers and I served the chicken/pepper mix over jasmine rice. I did not like the flavor of the sauce at all. All I could taste was the honey and orange juice (and the bitter taste from the vinegar. My boyfriend didn't mind the dish but he said it didn't have much flavor. I personally would never want to eat this dish again.

    As did most, I doubled the sauce part of the recipe also tripling the chili garlic sauce but leaving the honey as stated. It was excellent. Some reviewers were correct, even though the ingredient list had ginger it was unclear where to add it (I see that a lot on here sadly. I grated it into the sauce - good place for it! Also, thanks to the picture I understood the pepper mixture but just in case, I used one red bell pepper and one yellow bell pepper, no green peppers. : I'm the kind of person that needs it spelled out at least the first time I try something! So good, easy to make, maybe 20 minutes tops including all the chopping. We used white rice because I think brown rice tastes like cardboard. Very yummy and spicy!

    Yummy! Already made it twice. Definitely double the sauce, less honey, more spicy. Used more chicken than called for and also put cornstarch on it. Substituted broccoli and baby corn for the snap peas. Placed over brown rice and we have a winner!

    Very good!! A little different than your typical sweet and sour sauce!! Used 8 boneless chicken breasts-rolled them in cornstarch based on other reviews and doubled the sauce-added mushrooms and a bit more chili garlic sauce-served with Rachel Ray's No pain-Lo Mein-will definitely make again!!
