Definitely worth trying. I did not love it, but will definitely order it every few weeks to mix it up. It is not bad. Now the Asian Orange Chicken is another story. That I will be ordering at least once a week.

I really like it. It is different than other dishes and is more filling.

It's worth a try. It wasn't "a favorite" but I would occasionally order it again.
I also like the Chicken Parm better than I thought I would.
My JCC said that the Orange Chicken, which I had been looking forward to, wasn't getting good reviews from her clients so I didn't order it. But most of the people who have tried it on the boards seem to like it, so I will try it for myself next week.

I had the Chicken marsala today for lunch. I did not like it at all which is so surprising because I haven't had that experience many times even with the foods I don't order. I didn't even finish it so needless to say I was hungry luckily I took my evening fruit to work with me. Won't be ordering this one again.

I like all of the frozen pasta dishes, but there was just something "off" to me about the Chicken Marsala. It has a very inauthentic taste, the sauce was thick and just too much, the mushrooms were rubbery, and there wasnt enough pasta. That said, it was very filling and maybe just not my cup of tea. I like the orange chicken and the Tomatillo chicken is one of my new faves. Haven't tried the Thai Chicken Curry yet, but looking forward to it.

I enjoyed the new Chicken Marsala. And I liked the Orange Chicken too. The Marsala's noodles were nice, and didn't get tough.

I've found that most of the foods are good if you like them in a restaurant, and chicken marsala is no exception.
I'm not a fan of orange chicken from a restaurant, but LOVE the JC version!!!
