Directions
Sweet & Sour Popcorn Chicken, From Simple & Delicious. You could probably also use popcorn fish or other frozen, breaded or battered, bite-sized meat or seafood or even Quorn nuggets for vegetarians. I served it with Egg Drop Soup #185685 and Fried Rice #185688, plus some chicken & vegetable egg rolls. It’s very delicious and simple to throw together. There’s a lot of sauce, which was great for dipping the egg rolls into. The serving sizes for this and the other two recipes were fairly generous, too–we ate heartily and still had leftovers for DH’s lunch. My toddler couldn’t get enough of the chicken in the sauce (though I wish he’d done better with the fruit and veggies!)., Pretty good! My husband loved it. I omitted the onion (personal preference) and used the whole bag of popcorn chicken. I ended up keeping the popcorn chicken out separate from the dish, and added it as plates were made. I learned from the last time that I made it that reheated, the chicken is soggy and gross! Best to just allow it to be mixed into the sauce as needed if the dish won’t be eaten all at once. The sauce is a bit overpowering, but still not sure how to combat that, even with multiple variations tried. Maybe… perhaps it’s just me!, My whole family loved this! Hubby thought it was even better on the second day.
