Generous, sweet, tasty and satisfying
Delighted with this meal. I bought it reduced down and thought I’d give it a try. We had one each which was plenty although I added some veg. It has a lovely rich sweet sauce, generous amounts of pineapple and red peppers, a couple of water chestnuts and lovely large bite sized pieces of whole chicken. I hate batter so this is perfect for me. The microwave instructions are perfect and the rice (with a splash of soya sauce) is very tasty. I would DEFINITELY pay full price for this and buy it again
Thumbs down from me
Horrid, couldn't eat much of it chicken is like chewing rubber and I'm left with a aftertaste of what I can only describe as sweetener
Deeply unpleasant
Rice had no flavour, chicken was generous in portion size but absolutely tasteless. Sauce was thin, red, liquid sugar. Horrible.
Disgusting
This should not be called sweet and sour because that relates to the flavour of the sauce. The sauce falvour is nothing but red pepper. Try sticking to the recipe!
Substantial but insipid. All sweet and no sour!

The review demeaning pineapple has no idea what they're talking about. "Sweet and sour" is a specific type of sauce that has always traditionally used fruit, most commonly pineapple. And it is gorgeous. Very different from the "Sweet chili" they mistook this for. Despite freezing this for a week before cooking, the chicken remained juicy and tender! The peppers were also flavourful and crunchy and the sauce was heaven. My only gripe with this meal was a plastic aftertaste from the rice, though it was quite minor and is only to be expected from microwaving rice in a plastic holder. This could perhaps be remedied by adding more water to the rice before microwaving, or cooking the rice separately, but who has time for that? Overall excellent meal, would recommend and buy again :)
I think this is a tasty meal and a lot more health
I think this is a tasty meal and a lot more healthy than other similar meals that can be bought.
Okay
This is okay, not very flavourful, but that's expected for such a low calorie meal. The rice is nice.
Avoid- taste overpowered by pineapple
Contains PINEAPPLE, absolutely disgusting, overpowers everything. No fruit is ever needed in sweet and sour chicken the sweet is supposed to be sweet chilli sauce! Pineapple contaminates every part of a dish if it is used.
Absolutely tasteless - I was very disappointed!
