Stouffer's Frozen Orange Chicken Air Fryer Food - 22oz​

Tonight I tried one of the new Stouffer's Air Fryer Meals (Orange Chicken). I used my Ninja Foodi 10 Quart Air Fryer (1,690 watts) and followed the package directions exactly. The chicken came out perfectly but the broccoli was burned to a crisp. I note that my air fryer is more powerful than the one the product was designed for but if I reduce the cooking time or temperature, the perfectly done chicken will be undercooked. The choice seems to be undercooked chicken or burnt broccoli.

The is absolutely disgusting and why does the broccoli smell so bad

A bit on the salty side. Veggies are definitely al denti but much of the broccoli was burned and blackened. Most of the chicken was tender but sauce was pretty heavy.

I greatly appreciate Stouffer's realizing that people might want a simple complete meal solution for the air fryer in the form of a similar meal solution to what we already enjoy from them for the oven. Throw a family sized meal in the heating implement and walk away from it for long enough to get something else done, come back to a meal ready to serve? Yes, please. However, these frozen meals do not heat evenly. If you follow the directions, the broccoli and bell peppers will cook first, then the chicken nuggets, and the carrots last. Not only that, but the broccolli leaves floret dust on the bottom of the air fryer, and that dust will burn. There is no easy way to seperate out the ingredients for graduated cooking because they are all frozen and glommed together, not unlike what you get with the skillet meals. So you can wait until the carrots are fully done, or you can take it out while the carrots are still a little chewy. The sauce does not help with the texture issues in any way. I've tried both the orange chicken and the teriyaki chicken and they both come out with the same problems. I can only assume the garlic chicken is the same, since it seems predicated on the same concept: mix frozen chicken nuggets with frozen chopped vegetables, add sauce after it comes out of the air fryer, serve with rice or noodles of your choice. I did stir fry the leftovers from these in sesame oil and found them much, much more palatable for that, so take that as you will. Stouffer's needs to go back to the drawing board if they want to make this line more than a limited edition for convenience meals.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was delicious!!! Not only was it quick and easy to make, but the flavors are amazing! You can truly taste the citrusy notes in the sauce and the veggies and chicken get crunchy in the air fryer instead of staying soggy like some air fryer meals. The packaging is visually appealing and the picture on the front is pretty accurate to the actual product. There also was a great amount of food in the bag and fed both me and my husband with sides.

So gross, tasted terrible and the quality was very low. Could not use in the air fryer, super soggy. Waste of money.

After a long day pulling the camper, we stopped at a grocery store to pick up something quick & easy for dinner. Hubs picked up a single boxed meal and I saw this on the shelf. Something new to try in our Ninja air fryer! I followed the package directions and it came out perfect! Smelled wonderful! Hubs ditched his single meal and enjoyed it too! This is a new family favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took me a couple of Walmarts to find this product but it was definitely worth it! It has a very good flavor and it’s very easy to cook. I enjoyed this a lot!

80% of the package is broccoli, with just a few tiny chicken nuggets thrown into the mix. Skip this trash. Waste of money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter LOVED the product. We often stay up late and use our air fliers like we're having a slumber party. These are affordable and taste good. The veggies were so crisp and perfect to me. I'm more into veg than I am meat, but the protein tasted good with sauce and without. Is recommend for a latte night snack/ dinner. 😋

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This meal is easy to make and also a delicious dinner for the family! My little guy loved it, which can sometimes be hard to find. It has good flavor but isn’t overpowering. Super simple for a weeknight dinner!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great portions and the package quality is good. The instructions are good and are easy to understand. The consistency wasn’t bad either. Overall it’s a great option for a homemade orange chicken in the air fryer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complimentary to test and review for my honest opinion. This was actually very good my only complaint is i wish it was a larger portion.

I had to adjust the recipe, because my air fryer does not have a 375. So I put 370, and two additional minutes. The food was good, although the smaller bits of broccoli did burn. I wish the chicken wasn't as salty, and that the orange sauce had a little more sweetness, and a little more orangey taste. But overall, it was great. Chicken quality was great, and it was crispy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was ok. The broccoli and chicken were really good, but the sauce was fruity. The orange was strong and I was not expecting from what I am usually used to. It did taste like they used all natural ingredients and not just a syrup to mimic the taste which was good. I like also that it only took 12 minutes to fix.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This meal was filling and delicious, my kids loved this meal the flavor was spot on! And packaging made for quick simple meal! The cooking instructions were clear and very easy to follow. The texture consistency was perfection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The flavor was decent and packaging was gold. Portion sizing and instructions were also good. Not something id eat everyday but once in awhile if I felt lazy with dinner.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quick easy meal! I love anything that can go in the air fryer. It is a little large for one person but my leftovers reheated pretty well. The flavors and level of sauce was not lacking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I personally took out the broccoli after a little bit to avoid it getting burnt. The food was good and easy to make! The orange sauce I only used a bit because it’s strong! Portion size good for 1-2

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] flavor was good. cooking instructions were pretty easy to follow. i usually make rice with meals like this so it can last me a few days. Packaging is nice & with enough sauce the texture is good too
