Costco Orange Chicken

Fan favorite here…Costco Orange Chicken! This Bibigo Tempura Orange Chicken is a great “fakeout” option for make-at-home Chinese food. Chunks of chicken breast cooked tempura style with everyone’s favorite orange sauce…add some rice and [maybe] some vegetables on the side and this is a hit with even the smallest and pickiest of eaters! Costco orange chicken is a crowd pleaser!
What we like about Costco Orange Chicken:
- It tastes pretty good
- Chicken is better quality than most average take out
- We can pair it with healthier sides when we make it at home
- It’s MUCH cheaper
- No MSG
- We know what’s in it
- It cooks in under 15 minutes
- Easy to keep on hand (freezer meal)
- Kid-friendly
- Comfort food hits the spot!
What we don’t love about Costco Orange Chicken:
- It’s not a good choice for those who need a low sodium diet
- Could have better oils in it – FWIW as an alternative to Chinese takeout, we don’t believe that real takeout would have any better oils…but homemade would of course
- Once in awhile I get a gross piece of chicken (but same with takeout)
Recommendation
Overall, this isn’t health food I mean lets be honest – it’s comfort food – it’s a money saving alternative to Chinese takeout that cooks quickly, and it tastes good (I happen to love orange chicken).
It’s also family friendly and picky kid friendly, and really I think the main reason to eat this it’s just that it tastes good and not that it’s the highest quality food ever. For a convenience food in this price point I think this tastes good, and recommend it.
Serve Tempura Orange Chicken with:
- White Rice
- Steamed Broccoli
- Edamame
- Steamed Dumplings
- Yakisoba Noodles
- Glass of White Wine
