Orange Chicken 30 Minutes Skillet Recipe

Category: Lunch/Snacks, Dinner Party, Meat

 Ingredients List

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (for frying)
  • Sesame seeds & sliced green onions for garnish, if desired
  • Marinade:
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water
  • Orange Sauce:
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup pulp free orange juice concentrate, thawed (1/2 can)
  • 3 tbsp barbecue sauce (I used Sweet Baby Rays)

 Directions

1. Start by cutting 1 1/2 pounds of chicken breasts into chunks (about 1 ”“ 1 1/2 cubes). Mix together soy sauce, cornstarch and water. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Allow the chicken to marinate for 5 minutes.
2. While it is marinating, prepare the orange sauce so that it is ready when you need it later. Mix together oil, pulp-free orange juice concentrate and barbecue sauce.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet. Remove the chicken from the marinade with a slotted spoon and carefully add it to the skillet. Stir-fry the chicken, over medium-high heat, for 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through.
4. Add the orange sauce to the chicken and cook for 4-6 minutes, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened.
5. Top with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired. Serve over rice or noodles.
