New Kung Pao Chicken Entree

The new dish features a stir-fry style Kung Pao sauce, with a blend of soy sauce, garlic and ginger flavors

CrazyCuizine_900
July 27, 2016
Crazy Cuizine, known for bringing authentic Asian-inspired cuisine from the freezer aisle to the dinner table in minutes, introduced a mouthwatering new flavor to its popular line of family-style, frozen entrees: Kung Pao Chicken. Made with lightly battered chicken breast and rib meat, the new dish features a stir-fry style Kung Pao sauce, with a blend of soy sauce, garlic and ginger flavors, and a mild kick of spicy heat that gives the dish a true sense of Szechuan-inspired authenticity.

A better value than take-out, new Crazy Cuizine Kung Pao Chicken is an easy-to-prepare stir-fry dish, complete with packs of tender, frozen steamed vegetables, cashews for crunch, and Crazy Cuizine’s all-new signature Kung Pao sauce. The savory flavors of the new Crazy Cuizine Kung Pao Chicken pair with side dishes such as rice, noodles, or additional fresh or frozen veggies to create a well-balanced meal.

“Adapted by American Chinese Food vendors throughout the 20th century, the Kung Pao Chicken recipe which Western palates have come to know and crave is a delicious, succulent and slightly spicy version of an ancient entrée, which Crazy Cuizine has emulated for this latest launch,” said David Weinberg, sales and marketing director at Day-Lee Foods, Inc. “Featuring a carefully crafted recipe, Crazy Cuizine Kung Pao Chicken combines a delicate blend of flavors ranging from sweet to savory and spicy in every bite. We are thrilled to offer families a Kung Pao Chicken option that allows them to choose take-home rather than take-out. Whether families are looking to serve up a quick and simple meal right from the box or excited to explore their kitchen creativity utilizing Kung Pao in their own recipes, this new entrée is sure to entice!”

As with the entire line of Crazy Cuizine entrées and appetizers, new Kung Pao Chicken is a family-style offering that is high in protein and free of trans fats, with no MSG added. Fully cooked and ready to serve in just 18 minutes or less, Crazy Cuizine Kung Pao Chicken can be prepared straight from the freezer without defrosting for a convenient and affordable meal, appetizer or snack anytime.

Prepared in the oven or on the stovetop, each Kung Pao Chicken family-style entrée contains approximately nine servings per 44-ounce box, packing 16 grams of protein and only 210 calories per serving. The Crazy Cuizine line of convenient family meals features signature Asian flavors including Mandarin Orange Chicken, which won the ChefsBest 2016 Excellence in Taste Award; popular sriracha hot sauce-infused products like Honey Sriracha Chicken Bites and Sriracha Chicken Potstickers; as well as classics like Teriyaki Chicken, Korean BBQ Chicken, General Tso’s Chicken, Sweet-Chili Chicken, and Chicken and Pork Potstickers.
