This orange chicken recipe is better than getting takeout! A sweet and sour orange sauce is mixed with crispy chicken bites to make a tasty dish that will become a family favorite.
Ingredients: 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces. 1/2 cup cornstarch. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. 1/2 cup orange juice. 1/4 cup soy sauce. 1/4 cup honey. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 tablespoon grated ginger. 2 teaspoons orange zest. 2 green onions, thinly sliced. Sesame seeds, for garnish optional.
Instructions: In a large bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch until well coated. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and orange zest. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve hot over rice or noodles.
