Just what I was looking for! I wanted a traditional sweet and sour and that’s what it is. The only thing I added was some onions just because I like onions. We also added Sambal Oelek at the table for some heat. Perfect! Thanks.

This is a tasty dish, I would recommend it b/c it’s a natural, more healthy recipe than Panda Express.
