Chicken Shu Mai: 5/10
These chicken shu mai are bite sized chicken dumplings filled with chicken and veggies. I thought the flavor was pretty good overall, but I did not enjoy the texture of the chicken filling. The best way to describe it was sponge like. The texture reminded me exactly of the #traderjoes chicken Pelmeni filling which I also did not care for. These dumplings were also filled with green onions, carrots, and seasoning and I enjoyed the taste, but just couldn’t get past how everything was sponged together. Also, the sauce was a little too sweet for my taste and I ended up making my own spicy and sweet soy sauce to dip these dumplings into. But at 390 calories for the whole package and 33 grams of protein, this is a great and pretty filling meal. Its $2.99 for the pack.
Have you tried these yet? What do you think?
Have you had them drunk though?!
So good
My daughter loves these! Lol I agree they’re not the most appetizing texture but they are a great replacement for chicken nuggets!
I tried these!!! They were so disappointing and spongy 🤢
The pelmeni WERE sponge-like! 🤢
Yes! Very good!! I use a little bit of soy sauce after with a sprinkle of onion salt
Bummed!!! I love the majority of their frozen Asian meals
Love to use the extra dipping sauce as a marinade
I like the soup dumplings better 🙂
I did not like these! I found the instructions on cooking them made them mushy so I then put them in a pan and fried the top and bottom, made them a little better.
I got a bone in one the first tome I got it… I’ll pass
These sucked. Agree on the sponge-like description!
Yes! The texture was very…odd.
no these deserve a 10/10 don’t even

I tried these last week and was also thrown off by the texture. I do love the chicken soup dumplings you reviewed, can’t wait to get more!
