The Asian-themed
Healthy Choice Steaming Entrée,
Sesame Glazed Chicken features chicken tenderloins with whole grain rice, water chestnuts, sugar snap peas and red peppers in a sweet sesame glaze.
Like other Steaming Entrées, this 9-ounce frozen meal is generally
about $2.99 or around $2.00 on sale.
This one was mostly good for me (Get it? Healthy Choice? Mostly good? Okay, I'll stop.). I liked the veggies and the nutty whole grain rice.
The chicken was tender and the water chestnuts have that unique texture; it feels a bit like a very firm, dense watermelon.
What I didn't like was the amount of sesame glaze that they include. The sauce is salty-sweet with a tinge of sesame nuttiness with a heavy leaning towards sweet and there's enough to cover everything if not more. I would have liked a lot more with the glaze on the side (or maybe with a lot more rice to balance it out) but still, I'd eat it again.
