"This orange chicken is fantastic! In my opinion, it's better than restaurant quality. A friend shared this with me and I love it so much. You can reduce the amount of sugar and it will still taste great. Enjoy!"

  1. love it
     
  2. Very tasty, loved the simple ingredients. I was too lazy to brown then bake the chicken, so I just cooked the chicken in a pan then added the sauce to thicken. (The chicken is not crispy this way, though.) The sauce was very thin this way, so I used 2 TB cornstarch. I may lower the sugar next time, as it was a bit too sweet for me (but my sweet-tooth family loved it). I added some cooked broccoli and sprinkled a little crushed red pepper on top. It made a lot of sauce, which my family likes, and you could certainly add more veggies because of this.
     
  3. This was DELICIOUS! So easy and soooo tasty. I followed the instructions as written only like Sydney Mike I sliced some orange and put it on top of the dish before serving. Definately going into my Favorites of 2011. Thank you for posting. Made for Fall Pick-A-Chef 2011.
     
  4. I made this recipe but I bought the premade orange sauce by Panda Express but I followed the instructions for the rest of it and it was soooo good! I loved it and will be making it again. =)
     
  5. Although I did reduce the amount of salt to 1/2 teaspoon, other than that, I followed the recipe & the resulting chicken TASTED GREAT! As a final touch, I did take several slices of unpeeled orange & then cut the slices in half & again sliced them from the center outward, sort of into slender orange picks! Then I simple 4 or 5 on top ot the sauced chicken & rice! Thanks for a keeper recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in the current Pick A Chef]
