A healthier baked version of the classic Chinese takeout dish, orange chicken. Tender chicken pieces are coated in a tangy orange sauce and baked to perfection, resulting in a flavorful and satisfying meal.

Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces. 1/3 cup flour. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1 tablespoon olive oil. 1 cup orange marmalade. 2 tablespoons soy sauce. 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce. 1 tablespoon rice vinegar. 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil. 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. 1 clove garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger. 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, for garnish. 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, for garnish.

Instructions: Preheat oven to 375F 190C. In a shallow dish, mix together flour, salt, and black pepper. Coat chicken pieces in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add coated chicken pieces and cook until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. In a small saucepan, combine orange marmalade, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, garlic, and ginger. Cook over medium heat until mixture is heated through and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Place browned chicken pieces in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour orange sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and sauce is bubbly. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

#orangechicken #my first time making orange chicken since my bby likes citrus flavor stuff. so I went to whole foodz mainly for the organic whole chicken since we use a lot of that... found soy ginger sauce which is one of the main ingredient for making orange chicken ... to make orange chicken u need to marinate ur chicken pieces in soy sauce mixed with fresh ginger ( that's the best way to do this ) but it was last min and I was lazy and as soon as I saw this sauce that was the end for me! ;) it's a very healthy sauce and very very little sugar!! .. I marinated my chicken in that sauce for 15 mins while added 2-3 spoon of the potato starch to it as well, ( I choose the potato starch for healthier and #glutenfree) since my chicken was already cooked all I had to do stir fry it for a short time with avacodo oil ( since i need to cook on medium heat) and then literally after that it was so good and ready to eat that I wouldn't need to add nothing else to my recipe !( I suggest if u make this save sum without adding it to orange marmalade sauce and compare and see which one u like the best) u can just eat ur stir fry #soyginerchicken like that!!! it tastes amazing! but I wanted to try the orange juice too , so I boiled my orange juice and sum orange marmalade together for a very short time and poured my whole chicken in it and had it cook together for a few mins to absorb majority of juice .. the problem for us after it was cooked in the orange sauce , was that it was way too sweet and my bby couldn't eat it since she doesn't like sweet food .. I didnt expect it this sweet however my orange juice was fresh squeezed and extremely sweet .. so if u make this recipe it will turn out great if u like it sweet or u can use no marmalade in it or use more sour orange juice .. # (ingredients: 365 brand soy ginger sauce red mill brand potato starch ( gf) chicken fresh squeezed orange juice marmalade orange( optional for more sweet) avacodo oil ) #orangechicken #healthymom #healthyfood #healthy #healthykids #homemadefood #healthyrecepieces #cleanfood #healthyorangechicken #glutenfree #glutenfreemom #cleaneating #organicchicken
