6 Reviews of Sweet and Sour Chicken

Excellent! I made this tonight, and it surpassed any expectations I had about it. It was better than my favorite sweet and sour at a local Chinese restaurant. I will be more efficient in making it next time by prepping veggies first, slicing chicken next, then mixing the batter and sauce. After all of that is assembled, it is a breeze. Crisp, tasty batter; lovely tangy s/s sauce, and crispy veggies. What could be better. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. My picky daughter, home from college, is begging for this recipe. I've had it for a few months and just now got around to trying it. It will be a regular from now on. Delicious!!

    I used the serving adjuster and made 40 servings for my staff Holiday party. It took a while to cook all that chicken, but it was AMAZING!!! Everyone LOVED it! I am making some tonight for dinner!!!!

    Overall, this was a good recipe, but a little too sour. I would suggest adding a little more brown sugar (to taste) to the sauce recipe. Also, I suggest only lightly coating the chiken before frying - otherwise all you taste is half-raw batter.

    This was very good. I did think that the batter needed something, like salt and pepper. It was a great consistancy and it fried up great,but it needed a little more taste to it. But I will be sure to make this again.

    This was amazing! It was just like a resturant made it in flavor and appearance. Great sauce, great batter. I didn't have white wine vinegar so I used rice vinegar and tasted great. Will make this a lot especially when I want to impress! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
