My fiance and I disliked this recipe so much that we actually threw out the leftovers (which there were a LOT of). I don't think I've ever thrown out leftovers before this. This recipe is very bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone who likes any level of spices in there food. If you don't believe me just look at the ingredients and think about it...popcorn, peanuts, teensy bit of soy sauce... The only flavor was from the sweet and sour sauce. Personally, I like my chicken to taste like something besides, well, plain chicken.

There are not words enough for how popular this recipe was in my house. So popular, in fact, that when I went to categorize it as 'household for kids' I stopped because my child's love was overshadowed by my HUSBAND'S LOVE. It was fun to make (there were enough steps to allow my 5 year old to feel as tho she were cooking. few enough that her mama didn't feel as though she were slaving away in the kitchen, err, *cooking!*), involved smashing (whats not to love about that), and appealed to both of their taste-buds. We had no leftovers. TIP: I put the crumbs mixture into a Ziploc bag and shook the chicken in it. Not sure it was easier---but it was fun. In addition if you are on a low-sodium diet you can easily substitute plain popcorn for a few pieces of chicken.
