Great easy recipe! I also added the juice from the pineapple to the sauce mixture and doubled the other ingredients in the sauce mixture to compensate for the extra juice. It turned out well as I didn't want to waste the pineapple juice. I served it over rice. Loved it! Will definitely make it again!
This was wonderful!! Will definitely make again. The only issue I had was that the sauce was not as thick as I had expected. Perhaps I might use a tiny bit more cornstarch next time. Also I cut the chicken into smaller pieces. But this was wonderful. Fabulous flavor. Thank you
This is my recipe so of course I love it! Spiciness can be increased by adding more crushed red pepper and the chicken should be cut into about 1-1/2" x 1/2" strips (chunks). You can also use fresh veggies or pork for this recipe. Have fun!
The only reason I can't offer this awesome recipe five stars is because I changed it for necessity's sake. I found this recipe while trying to fix a meal with what was in my pantry and so my ingredients were limited. I used powdered ginger (half the amount) because I had no fresh I use fresh garlic (almost twice as much) because I had no powder no pineapple and no green onion. The biggest risk was that I use apricot preserves instead of caned apricots which added a touch of sweetness. I cooked the veggies separate but I'll mix them in next time. Even my skeptical 18 year old nephew loved it....I'll make this again. It was awesome.
There was nothing bad about it but nothing to rave about either. My 12 yr old thoroughly enjoyed it and we'll be making it again because of that. I thought it was missing something although the pineapples and apricots were amazingly good in it.
Sorry I did not care for this at all the flavour was OK altho certainly not what I would consider spicy. I used a lot of fresh garlic rather than powder and I still didn't think the sauce had much flavour. I also thought the texture of the canned apricots conflicted too much with the slightly crunchy veggies. If I left the apricots out and seasoned up the sauce more would be good but then it wouldn't be this recipe.
Wonderful recipe! I tweaked the apricot and pineapple amounts based on what I had (more pineapple than apricots) and it was still wicked good. Added some fresh garlic to the ginger and put some shrimp in there too. As others noticed the sauce didn't thicken up a whole lot so I added a bit more cornstarch. Still little liquidy but liked it because the rice absorbed the extra. Definite keeper. Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful recipe. I've made this a couple of times now and the whole family enjoys the flavour. The only reason this is 4 stars rather than 5 is because the sauce does need to be thickened.
Delicious sauce and chicken! Instead of frozen veggies I used fresh bell and sweet peppers broccoli zucchini and tomato and it turned out great.
