Better than Takeout!

We always double up on this order, because it is a family favorite. Without exaggeration, it's better than takeout.I make one meal kit on a Tuesday, then make it all over again on Thursday, and everyone is so excited. You can truly learn from Maria as you prepare her dishes. Coating pieces of chicken with cornstarch leaves your meat moist yet crispy.

So good!

I wasn't sure about this dish after reading the reviews about how salty it is, but we thought it was very, very good. Crispy nuggets of chicken and toasted peanuts with a slightly sweet Kung Pao sauce -- yum!

Great dish

Taste great but I wish all the dishes served with rice came with twice the sauce!! There is never enough to pour over the rice so you are eating just plain rice!

So salty

I may have messed something up in cooking it but it was super salty to us. Almost too salty to eat, we didn't keep the leftovers.

Super Salty

This dish turned out super salty for us - so much so that it was not edible, unfortunately. Maybe we just got a bad batch of the sauce.

Very tasty

This was easy to prepare. However, wasn't spicy enough. Had 2 add some. The chicken was nice and crunchy and the sauce was flavorful, just a little heavy on the soy sauce though.Would have been better with some stir fried veggies as well

Perfect!

We really love Maria's Asian food - we always joke that it is better than any takeout we could order! This dish was super flavorful and simple to make. My husband and I loved it! The sauce thickens up so well. A favorite!
