Mandarin Orange Chicken
This is an easy and flexible recipe that is a staple at my house. I will admit to a few minor changes that you might like to try. My husband and I enjoy saucy dishes over rice, so I cut the chicken up into bite size pieces, then dusted with flour and pan-fried them in the oil with 1 Tsp fresh garlic. I followed the rest of the recipe the same, save for increasing the OJ and Hoisin to 1/2 cup to make more sauce to put over the rice. Chopped peanuts are good when you don't have cashews on hand. I know this alters the recipe somewhat but the basic flavors are still there. The chicken pieces comeout very tender and flavorful and the sauce is tasty without being overwhelming. I think my husband would eat this every day if he had his way and if there are leftovers, they always disappear the next day. Thanks for the great recipe - the best ones are flexible!
