Chicken Helper Ultimate Sweet & Spicy Teriyaki



If ice cubes and cucumbers are too spicy for you then, perhaps, you shouldn't try this. For everyone else this is further proof that "spicy" really doesn't mean anything in advertising. You know what though? In this case I don't care. It's really tasty. Almost like something you'd get at a restaurant. The sauce is sweet and tangy and yes, there is a teensy tiny hint of chili pepper. Maybe the amount you'd get if someone ran through the room holding a pepper aloft as if it was an Olympic torch, but it is there.

Don't worry, it makes a lot more food than this.

I feel I must warn you it's a bit more work than your usual Chicken or Hamburger Helper. You have to coat the chicken pieces in spices, fry them, and then add in a sauce while making the rice. The instructions are pretty clear, and if you follow them it'll turn out great, so having to wash an extra couple dishes won't kill you. Lazy bones, sheesh. I would recommend making certain the chicken strips are cut fairly small, it won't affect the flavor, but some of the larger pieces I made took a little longer to cook. I would also suggest adding some actual chili peppers or at least some hot sauce, just in case you really do want something spicy.
