Easy Orange Chicken

Easy Orange Chicken

I love good Orange Chicken but our local places have been going down on quality so I set out to make something yummy we can make at home!

Chicken

4 chicken breasts 4 eggs beaten in a bowl 1 1/2 cup flour and 1 1/2 cup cornstarch mixed together Cut chicken in bite size pieces coat in egg and then in flour cornstarch mixture. Drop in hot oil (skillet with about 3/4" oil or deep fryer and cook til crispy (deep fryer or air fryer is much easier)

Sauce

Add together 1 cup of Sweet and Spicy BBQ sauce 1 cup Orange Marmalade 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce 1 tablespoon minced ginger 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon grated orange peel 1/2 cup orange juice mix and cook til bubbly then add
1 cup pepper onion mix. Cook through

2 tablespoons grated orange peel

Put chicken in large bowl. Add orange peel. Pour sauce over chicken and toss and serve over your favorite rice or noodles. We like ours a little more saucy so we do 1 and 1/2 batch of sauce. The chicken is also perfect for other sauces as well! Next challenge is General Tso's sauce!
