Reviews for Kung Pao Chicken

Go back to recipe

Good flavors, easy dish, but WAY too much vinegar.  I started with half the sugar, as per earlier reviews, but needed to add the rest to try to balance the vinegar, which it still didn't do.  Maybe half the vinegar would be OK.  Garlic was a nice addition.

Great, easy dish.  I also added 4 garlic cloves and honey instead of sugar.  It turned out great!  Will make again for sure

I agree with another reviewer, it needs fresh ginger and lots of garlic.  Also this dish is supposed to have whole hot chili peppers.  Finally - cut the sugar to 1/2 tsp - the sugar should merely accent the taste not add a sweet undertone.

Very flat tasting.  Needs fresh ginger and garlic plus maybe some rice wine vinegar.

I made this as written but cut the chicken in half.  It was wonderful.  4 star because of the sodium.

This is a good weeknight meal. If you tend to cook with asian flavors you will most likely have most of the ingredients in your pantry.

Made this for a party and it was a hit.  Delicious and easy.
