Orange Chicken Recipe

Orange Chicken is one of my favorite things, and I found this super easy recipe that turned out to be DELICIOUS, so here I am posting and sharing.

Ingredients:
2lbs of Chicken breasts cut into bite sized pieces
1/2 cup Cornstarch
1/4 cup Flour
2 Eggs
Oil
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp minced ginger (I used ground ginger and it seemed to taste fine)
Salt & Pepper

The Sauce:
Mix these together in a bowl.

1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tbsp water
5 tbsp sugar
4 tbsp vinegar
zest of one orange


In one bowl mix cornstarch and flour. In another bowl mix egg with some salt and pepper. On the stove heat one cup of oil on the skillet. Dip the chicken pieces into the dry mixture and then into the egg mixture, then drop them into the skillet. Fry until crispy. Remove cooked chicken from skillet onto a paper towel lined plate. Put ginger and garlic into the skillet and fry for one minute. Then add the sauce and bring to a boil. Mix in the chicken, then serve over rice! YUM.
