 Check it out....

INGREDIENTS:

1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces

• 1/2 cup cornstarch

• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 2 large oranges, juiced; plus more orange juice if necessary

• 1/3 cup lite soy sauce

• 1/4 cup honey

• 1 tablespoon green onions, diced into thin rounds


DIRECTIONS:

To a large skillet, add freshly squeezed orange juice, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, olive oil, and boneless skinless chicken breast pieces that have been dredged in cornstarch. It’s the secret ingredient.

Cook until the chicken is done, less than 10 minutes, and dig in to this better-than-takeout copycat orange chicken alongside your favorite rice.

1.To a large bowl or ziptop plastic bag, add the chicken, cornstarch, and toss or shake the bag to coat the chicken evenly; set aside.

2.To a large skillet, add the oils, orange juice, soy sauce, honey, add the chicken pieces but not any excess cornstarch that's at the bottom of your bowl or bag, turn the heat to medium, and cook until chicken is done and cooked through; flip chicken and stir pan sauce that's forming nearly constantly.

Tip - If at any time your sauce is tightening or thickening up too much before the chicken has cooked through, simply add additional orange juice to thin it and keep stirring.

3.Evenly garnish with green onions and serve immediately. Extra chicken will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.

And there it is...Enjoy!  Eat Well My Friends!
