The ingredients and sauce are great, but when I added the breaded deep fried chicken to the sauce all the batter came off the chicken and soaked up the sauce leaving a weird textured mush. I would make this again but simply stir fry the chicken so it would leave more pleasant sauce, it would also be alot healthier and lower in fat.
