"Sometime in the 1980's my friend Geoff found a recipe for "Tangerine Chicken" in a magazine. We tried it but it wasn't nearly spicy enough for us. This is a heavily modified version of that recipe."

  • Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes.
  • Set temperature to low and add orange juice, mixing thoroughly.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes or until sauce has thickened to desired consistancy.

  • Note: rice, orange juice or slices, or cucumbers will cut the spice.
