Tastes great and its easy to prepare…and as an added bonus its not super sweet or super greasy like most Chinese restaurant versions of orange or General Tso’s Chicken. Two packs of the sauce make it even more convenient – prepare half of the chicken and freeze the rest for another meal

My husband and I love cooking this as a fast and easy dinner – when we pan fry it we cook it in the coconut oil! We got the recipe from TJ’s Cookbook!

Whenever we get an urge for Chinese food, we have some of this chicken. And we don’t get that lead feeling in our stomach after eating TJs chicken!

I really like these, as does our four year old. Very good quality for a frozen product. Some rice, stir fried veggies and I have a meal that the whole family enjoys.

This is my favorite product in Trader Joes! The meat is very good and soft. This chicken is even better than any chinese take out I have had!

Both of my kids love this chicken. It is easy to make after work and goes well with the Spicy Szechuan Tofu dish in the Cooking With All Things Trader Joe’s.

This is one of the components I make for our Frozen Chinese Food night we have once every couple of months. It’s tasty, easy to make and delicious along side vegetable fried rice and chicken won tons. I suggest to cook the chicken very well until the outside is very crispy-we have found the texture and taste to be best cooked in this manner.

No more trip to Panda Express. I can make it so quick and fresh. Taste great. I add little bit of hot sauce gives a little kick.

This is undoubtedly the most popular item this household buys at Trader Joes! It’s a huge hit and my picky sons favorite meal. Restaurant quality at home!

We eat this often. We pair it with the TJ’s chicken fried rice and then spoon the orange chicken over it.

I buy two or three packages of this everytime I go. The chicken is so much higher quality than you would get at a restaurant. I always serve with some TJ’s rice and the family LOVES it.

The Mandarin Orange Chicken is a staple in our house! I serve it with TJs Jasminrpe rice (frozen food section) and stir fried veggies in TJs toasted sesame oil…. Good, fast, and my year old LOVES it!

I always grab a bag of this at TJ’s. Serve it with TJ’s basmati rice from the freezer section. Quick meal.

I bake minutes in the oven and then stir fry for minutes. I add a bag of steamed broccoli at the end. Crispy and delicious!

Great quick dinner. Tastes just like at a restaurant. I served with rice and it was a great meal.

This is a great product. It pairs really well (and very quickly) with the frozen jasmine rice. I love that you can bake it for a lighter meal or fry it if you feel like being bad.

We love TJ’s orange chicken. It’s a quick and easy meal that tastes as if we got our favorite Chinese take out!

This is my most favorite Trader Joe’s product of all time. Restaurant quality.. I prefer prepared in a pan with hot oil. I also wish there was more in the package considering the price. One bag barely feeds our small family of three.

There’s a reason this is the # selling product at TJ’s. It’s delicious. It keeps its crispy texture, even after adding sauce. We love it.

Yes, this is good, but I can’t help but remember when they included more. Is it just me or does anyone else remember a larger quantity in each package? Still, it’s a good tasting product – just buy at least packages if you want to get full.

I like the texture of the breading and the flavor of sauce that is used in this dish, I just wish it was made with all white-meat chicken. I like add almonds in with this for a nice crunch.

This meal is perfect for our family when I am short on time! So easy to make and my boys love it! When I take them with me to TJ’s, a replacement bag always ends up in the cart!!! If you haven’t tried it yet, you are missing one of TJ’s best products!

A great dinner that is quick and tasty! I pair it with Trader Joe’s brown rice and Trader joes broccoli for a quick, weeknight meal!

A family favorite of ours! Love to pair this with the basmati rice, if I have any left on the shelf!

You can’t go wrong here. Everyone loves the orange chicken from chinese restaurants, but coming from Trader Joe’s, you know you are not getting any mystery ingredients. It is so easy! You just bake the chicken, toss it in the sauce, and serve with white or brown rice. Sweet, tangy, and oh so satisfying. For anyone who loves chinese food this is a must!!!

how are there no reviews on this yet? this is amazing. if you eat meat, you need to go get a bag od this immediately. the breading is very nice (light and a little crispy), the quality of the chicken used is great (unlike you, teriyaki bbq chicken). the sauce is awesome – if they sold it separately in bottles, i’d buy it. quick and easy to make. goes great with rice and/or veggies. this is one of the only TJ entrees i rebuy again and again (i like to try other products, so i don’t rebuy the same thing twice often)!
