This channel is a gem for people like me trying to bulk. The majority of high-calorie mealprep recipes on youtube are fitness-people with no clue how to cook, doing rice-steamed veg-seared meat-store bought condiments on rice. Thanks a lot. Great inspiration.
Honestly nothing wrong with that either been living on 1 of those recipes for half a year as a college student. However this will be a nice upgrade in the flavor department
@@prod.hxrford3896 THANK YOU! Agreed there. It does trigger me quite a bit, too. A good way to remember what's correct, @TheBurtle005 is by just removing the other person and just keeping yourself (e.g. "I made this for I tonight" would not make sense, but "I made this for myself" would). So, technically it should me "...for myself and my wife" but "for me and my wife" is correct enough, too.
I wanted to take time to thank you. My wife is on a fitness journey after having our son and she refuses to eat anything but this meal! Begging her to try others. By taking the time and adding the macros along with phenomenal tasting recipes, you easily earned a lifelong follower and recipe thief. Can’t thank you enough! Btw, she is 30 pounds down! Keep doing what you are doing. It isn’t just cooking food Jack, you are impacting lives. Thought you may need to hear that.
That’s amazing to hear! Wow. Thank you so much for sharing that. Means the world to me to hear things like this and glad it’s helping you guys. Much appreciated 🙏
As a single man that doesn’t know how to cook and lives alone this helps a ton I’m sure it’s like a 25 to 30 dollar purchase but it beats the hell out of 15 dollar meals when you go and eat outside each time 🙏 thanks !
The meal prep series rocks. I'm a very busy registered nurse and the last thing I want to do when I get home every evening is cook. A couple of hours grocery shopping and meal prepping on the weekend and voila, I've got delicious meals waiting for me when I get home. The sweet and sour chicken is beyond delicious. Thank you Chef. You are truly the food whisperer.
Your content, the quality, the consideration to different ingredients people might use and the consideration to offer conversions, your explanations. Everything is so excellent. In my opinion, you’re the best to watch and learn from.
Hey help me out then. Thanks sweet and sour sauce that i make following exactly thia recipe, does not thicken. And the chicken imdoes not turn out to be as red as in this video. Am i doing something wrong. Maybe wrong pineapple juice.
Literally just finished making the chickpea curry meal prep and wanted ideas for next week. This looks perfect. I like that your preps don't just have like 200-300 calories, since I need a lot more, and this one fits the bill.
I really like when you describe what each ingredient adds to the dish when introduce it into the mix. You are the ONLY one that i've seen do this in their videos.
Who on earth came up with the idea that being on a diet was going to be boring. That looks absolutely superb, and not at all boring. Thanks for the ideas and tips. Good work.
I tried this out today, and i absolutely loved it. One thing to add, make sure you have a large enough pan if you dont usually cook larger quantities. My first meal prep, and i am very happy with the result. thanks mate!
Your recipes never miss. I often find myself frequently browsing your channel. You’re straight to the point and concise with your measurements. Thank you for the effort that you pour you put into your videos. Myself as well as my girlfriend enjoy eating clean and tasty meals.
I just made this by myself as the first meal I've ever cooked as a 14 year old while my parents were away. I added some noodles to the rice and i think it's safe to say this was one of the best meals I've ever had, I would 100% do this again someday. Thank you for the recipe
I love this recipe so much, been having it for dinner every night for the last 3 months. As for my own tastes, I like to cut the chicken and capsicum a lot smaller as well as adding some cinnamon on top for extra flavor. I also prefer putting the rice underneath as a bed to soak up the flavor of the sauce.
Just by looking at it you know this is hella tasty. I just love delicious and savory meal prep that show us that meal prep doesn't have to taste bland and boring. This recipe is quite simple and yet full of flavors. Thank you man!
The first time I made it, it took me bloody ages but after practice I've got it down to a fine art at this point. Often I'll make the lemon chicken and this sweet and sour on the hob at the same time, so halves the cooking time overall (separate pans of course)
Only another dude can understand how simple and straightforward us guys want our cooking to be....Thank god there was no long commentary..that just exhausts me. Love your video mate! Great Work!
4:25 It would get more flavour to the chicken if you put the garlic and ginger paste at the begining with the olive alone for a few seconds and then add the chicken. Doing this way the oil (which is whe ingridient that gives most of the flavor to the chicken) you get a more strong garlic flavor on your chicken
I do something very similar. But i just let the peppers, onions and garlic simmer in some hopped up stock intead. Cuts down on the time even more and tastes majestic.
Sub for avocado oil or ghee and you are correct. Grapeseed oil is horrible for you. All seed oil is bad for you. They are highly inflammatory and highly processed.
Congratulations on the 500K mark Jack! Richly deserved IMHO. You continue to deliver top recipes, preparation tips and cooking methods. And anothe sweet & sour meal today! Keep it up. Cheers from AKL, NZL.
Thank you so much for your loyal support Howard! I always lookout for familiar names popping up in the comments and got to say you’re up the top. It’s great appreciated. Thanks mate 🙏
I love these meal prep idea series. I keep watching them and then changing the recipies to make some very quick and easy meals for my family on weekdays. I do tend to add more carrots, spinach, broccoli, corn and potatoes to the dish. But I did want to say thank you for making these and continuing to post them.
Made this recipe last night - doubled up the sauce recipe but reduced 2 spoons of honey. Came out amazing - family was very happy! Thanks for the great videos!
I started workout a few months ago and your channel is literally what I need rn cuz I really need to fix my diet. Thankyou so much its so easy with your videos!
Thank you so much. You have no idea how much you are helping my husband and I with meal prepping. Simple and straight to the point. Love how you include macros, measurements and serving sizes! You deserve so many more subscribers ❤❤
Love this!! I make mine very similar to this. I like adding pineapple bits too. Ive tried both cooking them and adding them cold before serving and I must say I actually prefer them cold! Adds a very interesting contrast between the hot and cold and tons of fruity sweetness.
I cooked this meal this weekend and love it. Very tasty and easy to follow. This is a very thought out series that i am really enjoying where the focus is on teaching rather than showing off. Loved your channel for a long time but this meal prep series is just superb!!
This is one of the best homemade meals I have done. Was a success with all of us. Thank you so much for giving us inspiration, can’t wait to try and make some others next week.
Made enough portions my wife and I for the week. I’ve never really cooked anything in my life and it came out amazing! I will continue to make more from your series.
I just made this and it came out fantastic!!! Thank you Jack! All your recipes have came out great and have NEVER left me disappointed. Keep up the good work brother!!
Hey Jack! Just stumbled upon your channel and made this as my very first meal prep for the week. Used chicken thighs instead of breast and followed your step by step instructions - very clear and straight to the point! big big thank you! The dish came out great and my family even enjoyed it. Will be meal prepping with your other recipes as well.
Came across your channel and this recipe today. Actually went to the store and got all I needed because I got so hyped to make it! Sitting here now with a bowl of this amazing dinner , thank you!
Thank you for showing everything clearly and simply describing the process. Short and sweet. No extra talking or forced excitement. Fantastic, super well done.
This is the exact recipe and video ive needed and have been blessed that it popped up on my home page, thanks so much, one of my most favourite meals that i can now cook from scratch for the whole week!

Love the meal preps you do! I make them for work, saves me so much money in the long run! Not sure if you've done a sticky honey chicken and rice/kung po chicken and rice but would be great to see one of these in the future? Just an idea! Top work Jack! Always good to see them subcriber numbers going up and up :)
Ohh Chef Jack, Thank you for being our best kitchen buddy..you make our lives super delicious and easy😋😋. Another easy and tasty recipe.. Birthday boy, missed the black pepper and the whisper 😛 😄
Hey Chef Jack, Absolutely loved this recipe and my god it tastes so good. I was wondering if there's any alternatives for the Bell Peppers. Bell Peppers where I live at is crazy expensive, so was wondering if there's any alternatives in mind. Thank you once again for this recipe ❤️
Omg thanks, i started living with housemates for college after depending on my parents for years. Im trying to do some body recomposition, these meals are so good since im poor as a joke :D.
Your content is awesome, I have been sold. I really appreciate the fact that you take the time to offer alternatives for folks with allergies, etc. and you also further elaborate on minute details of things when you don't need to, but I appreciate. Cheers.
All credit goes to Jack Ovens for this fantastic recipe. I always do meal planning on the weekend and I have made this maybe 10 times now. I have a couple small modifications that I think improve upon it, but again, all credit goes to Jack. 1- cut the chicken way smaller, it will be easier to cook a larger amount 2- DEFINITELY cook the chicken in 2 stages like jack suggests, it took me forever to try to cook it all at once 3- I used a 400ml can of dole pineapple tidbits instead of the juice like jack suggests. Make sure you add this to the sauce last or else it will make whisking the corn flour more difficult. I found the chunks of pineapple instead of the juice added a nice juicy texture 4 - double the garlic Thanks to Jack and happy meal planning everyone ✌️
Well, from cooking to stop doing that for a while, i tried to watch some recipes on youtube. Fortunately, I found this one, it really motivates me to start cooking again. Thanks Jack!
So sweet and sour chicken is my favorite chineese food. It is terrible for my health so I don’t eat it much. I cooked this today and followed the recipe exactly and it is delicious. I am sitting here right not stuffed. And i have it for the remainder of the week for lunch. Thanks so much.
Absolutely amazing recipe! Thanks for this, since my patience for making elaborate dishes every day has diminished. But lmao at "under an hour" for the prep. It took me well over 4 hours, but I suppose it will get faster with practice.
Thank you Jack, just made it for the first time and it turned out amazing. For any other cooking noobs like me, I’d recommend getting garlic and ginger paste. It saves me a lot of time and tastes just as good.
Should sprinkle the sesame seeds on, after plating them in your meal prep dishes. Like a finishing garnish... Would go well with the green onions garnished on top and just make the plating/appearance a slight bit better. Can also top the rice with sesame seeds as well like they commonly do in Japan.
Hi, this recipe is very good, i tried it and i liked it very much. I also really enjoy your other recipe videos.Your recipes are very simple and well explained. I hope you will continue this work and I am very much looking forward to more videos and recipes in the future. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Needed some meal preps, landed on this brilliant video and the small tips given throughout make it even better, like the substitute for cider vinegar (as a Muslim, I don't drink alcohol). Thank you, you've got a new subscriber.
If you eat rice a lot, I recommend getting a good rice cooker. Yes it is unitask tool, but it is worth it. It is almost impossible to make bad rice. Cooking the rice in a pot, I have never come close to getting the rice as good as my Zojirushi. The texture will be better than what you get at a restaurant. And somehow, the flavor is better. I used to look at people who ate plain rice and be baffled how they could eat something so plain tasting. Then I got the Zojirushi and now I know. It cooks brown rice, oats as well. It is one of those things that once you use one, you will never never go back.
This channel is a gem for people like me trying to bulk. The majority of high-calorie mealprep recipes on youtube are fitness-people with no clue how to cook, doing rice-steamed veg-seared meat-store bought condiments on rice. Thanks a lot. Great inspiration.
Happy to be able to help! I’ll never post a recipe that’s not good so no need to worry there 👌😉
Honestly nothing wrong with that either been living on 1 of those recipes for half a year as a college student. However this will be a nice upgrade in the flavor department
eat this amount three times a day to bulk, the portion is far too small to last longer than a hour
Using hyphens instead of commas made that read so weird at first lol I was sitting here thinking “what in the hell is veg-seared meat”

Did you use corn flour or starch? If starch, did you have to mix in water first?

Awesome to hear! Glad everyone enjoyed it
Ohh Chef Jack, Thank you for being our best kitchen buddy..you make our lives super delicious and easy😋😋. Another easy and tasty recipe.. Birthday boy, missed the black pepper and the whisper 😛 😄
You’re the best smita! Thank you 🙏 I’ll get the pepper back into it in the next one haha
This looks so delicious!! I’m definitely making this and might just do it for months and months too.
Thanks for sharing!
It’s so good! I wish I was eating it right now
Hey Chef Jack, Absolutely loved this recipe and my god it tastes so good. I was wondering if there's any alternatives for the Bell Peppers. Bell Peppers where I live at is crazy expensive, so was wondering if there's any alternatives in mind.
Thank you once again for this recipe ❤️
Omg thanks, i started living with housemates for college after depending on my parents for years. Im trying to do some body recomposition, these meals are so good since im poor as a joke :D.
Great to hear they’re helpful to you 🙏
Same situation here but my owner has a strictly no cooking policy, so there's no stove. What do I do with just a microwave?
Your content is awesome, I have been sold. I really appreciate the fact that you take the time to offer alternatives for folks with allergies, etc. and you also further elaborate on minute details of things when you don't need to, but I appreciate. Cheers.
All credit goes to Jack Ovens for this fantastic recipe. I always do meal planning on the weekend and I have made this maybe 10 times now. I have a couple small modifications that I think improve upon it, but again, all credit goes to Jack.
1- cut the chicken way smaller, it will be easier to cook a larger amount
2- DEFINITELY cook the chicken in 2 stages like jack suggests, it took me forever to try to cook it all at once
3- I used a 400ml can of dole pineapple tidbits instead of the juice like jack suggests. Make sure you add this to the sauce last or else it will make whisking the corn flour more difficult. I found the chunks of pineapple instead of the juice added a nice juicy texture
4 - double the garlic
Thanks to Jack and happy meal planning everyone ✌️
Amazing work! Glad you made changes that you prefer! Happy to hear you’re enjoying it. Thank you 🙏
Nice i make it
Great 👍
Well, from cooking to stop doing that for a while, i tried to watch some recipes on youtube. Fortunately, I found this one, it really motivates me to start cooking again. Thanks Jack!
Great to hear that!
0:12 No rice cooker?😢
i know right? I immidietly spotted a lot of questionable stuff but there is no comments pointing those out. Guess the channel owner deleted them all.
No. I just don’t use a rice cooker and my followers know that. I don’t need another appliance in my kitchen when I can cook perfect rice in a saucepan
@@JJ-gb5j Rice cooker makes it easier to cook rice but they aren’t really necessary.
@@TamThan4ever actually a weirdo ass take dude. Just an FYI, a lot of non Asian households don't have a rice cooker
@@TamThan4ever “questionable” lmao what
1:37 Why am I so immature? 🤐😂
@@rohanbomb2656 it's okay, you're not immature, just honest
It's okay, you're not immature, just honest
Just did it ! Approved ! Thanks ! Here in France, we're not used to Worcestershire, honey, and soy in a sauce, but I like it !
I like Big BREATS especially ones like these😊😊😊😊😊😊.

0:07 protein dish using with rice?? ..... uhhh okay....

Thats a bit racist mate

@@Vanduo610 brown is actually way worse for you... A simple google will tell you that...
i don't wanna cook or even have time during the week so meal preps are an excellent choice for me. Thank you.
So sweet and sour chicken is my favorite chineese food. It is terrible for my health so I don’t eat it much. I cooked this today and followed the recipe exactly and it is delicious. I am sitting here right not stuffed. And i have it for the remainder of the week for lunch. Thanks so much.
Perfect! Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Okay, from a cinematography perspective, changing the colors/peppers with each slice there was chef kiss. 😀
Yes is really tasty because of the red peppers,
And orange, green and yellow peppers gives a great flavor either.
Good chanel
I cooked this tonight and it was amazing, thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!!
Loved this one. More of this rice and chicken, with oriental flavor
Please, by all means. Use rice as much as you like. I love it. Versatile and easy to digest. You can also put spices in rice to change it up.
Absolutely amazing recipe! Thanks for this, since my patience for making elaborate dishes every day has diminished.
But lmao at "under an hour" for the prep. It took me well over 4 hours, but I suppose it will get faster with practice.
Thank you Jack, just made it for the first time and it turned out amazing. For any other cooking noobs like me, I’d recommend getting garlic and ginger paste. It saves me a lot of time and tastes just as good.
Should sprinkle the sesame seeds on, after plating them in your meal prep dishes.
Like a finishing garnish...
Would go well with the green onions garnished on top and just make the plating/appearance a slight bit better. Can also top the rice with sesame seeds as well like they commonly do in Japan.
Hi, this recipe is very good, i tried it and i liked it very much. I also really enjoy your other recipe videos.Your recipes are very simple and well explained. I hope you will continue this work and I am very much looking forward to more videos and recipes in the future. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
It's very nice to watch you cook! Thank you)
just made this for a second time and It's still awesome
Needed some meal preps, landed on this brilliant video and the small tips given throughout make it even better, like the substitute for cider vinegar (as a Muslim, I don't drink alcohol). Thank you, you've got a new subscriber.
I have made this a regular staple training meal prep for over a year now
It’s been great and filling for a bulk or gain. High protein it is ❤
I just made this with shredded cabbage and beans for my meal tomorrow. Thanks, Jack!
This is the best online recipe ever. So so tasty 😍😍😍 thank you so much
love your recipes and love the videos that make making this recipes much easier to make!
If you eat rice a lot, I recommend getting a good rice cooker. Yes it is unitask tool, but it is worth it. It is almost impossible to make bad rice. Cooking the rice in a pot, I have never come close to getting the rice as good as my Zojirushi. The texture will be better than what you get at a restaurant. And somehow, the flavor is better. I used to look at people who ate plain rice and be baffled how they could eat something so plain tasting. Then I got the Zojirushi and now I know. It cooks brown rice, oats as well. It is one of those things that once you use one, you will never never go back.
