    My family loved this recipe. The recipe makes ample sauce which has a sweet and sour taste. We served the chicken over white rice and the sauce added flavor to the rice also. Try this recipe, it's a nice dish to serve to guests also.

    I have been making this recipe since the 70's when Betty Crocker published it. It is a family favorite. I use boneless skinless chicken breasts cut up into pieces or I use chicken tenders. I also substitute red or yellow pepper for green. I use crushed pineapple if that is what I have on hand and sometimes if I make a large amount I use crushed and chunked pineapple together. I don't use bouillion cubes but I do use a tsp. of chicken base. Served over white or brown rice and you have homemade sweet and sour chicken good enough for company.

    This is incredibly good! I made it with bonelss skinless breasts. My daughter loved it and made it at her sisters house a couple of nights later. We'll be making this often.

    Made this for dinner last night. DD's liked it but didn't want seconds. DS loved it and even had thirds. I ate til I was nearly ashamed of myself and DH had thirds also. I had some of the sauce leftover and will eat it with rice today. I used unsweetened pineapple and Dh thought that they were a little too tart but I thought it was perfect!!Used boneless chicken that I cut into strips and instead of baking in oven I poured sauce over the browned chicken,turned on med.low and simmered about 20 minutes! Will make often!

    A favorite of our family for years. I use boneless chicken breasts and cut them in smaller pieces. I also use arrowroot instead of cornstarch because that is all I keep in the kitchen.
