    I added orange oil and put a quarter of the sugar. Delicious! I also used the same recipe for my tofu (since my family eats meat but I don't), it was just as good. Thank you!

    Mandarin Chicken,This is very similar to the Mandarin chicken served in the malls, except use white meat chicken. Boneless chicken thighs are what the restaurant uses. It’s quick, easy and delicious. Sometimes I’ll make this, then a quick trip to the local Chinese take-out for vegetable lo mein and eggrolls for a cheap, tasty Chinese meal that’s almost homemade. You’ll be amazed at how authentic this tastes! *Note: I have adjusted the amount of sugar to reflect comments written in reviews. If you like it sweet, use the full 2/3 cup.,I added orange oil and put a quarter of the sugar. Delicious! I also used the same recipe for my tofu (since my family eats meat but I don’t), it was just as good. Thank you!,I was in a rush so didn’t read the reviews. I added less than half the sugar and even my sweet tooth kids thought it was disgustingly sweet. Sorry but I ended up throwing it away and making everyone sandwiches.
