This was a fabulous dinner that my family loved. My husband always wants orange chicken, but I was tired of buying the frozen stuff from costco or trader joes. I found this recipe, but decided to skip the flour in order to keep it a bit healthier. I let the chicken marinade 24 hours. After cooking the chicken, I set it aside and sauteed some broccoli and carrots in the wok. Then I put those aside, heated the sauce and corn starch mixture, brought it to a boil, and then added the chicken and veggies to simmer for a few minutes. The veggies quickly took on the flavor of the ginger, which my family enjoyed. I left out the green onions and pepper flakes because my family is sensitive to spicy foods, but the flavor was still fabulous! I will definitely cook this again!

Awesome recipe! I've made it twice in one week because the family wanted it again! Served over rice with mixed vegetables on the side.

Amazing Recipe! I followed the instructions exactly but added double the red pepper flakes. It tasted like take-out Chinese! I followed some of the advice in the reviews: heating the chicken in the oven while the sauce cooks and adding the sauce last to prevent the breading on the chicken from coming off. This will become a family favorite.

Great flavor! We prefer grilled chicken over fried, so we skipped the breading and frying. Then we steamed broccoli and added it with the chicken at the end. We also omitted the green onion (we aren't onion fans). It was fabulous! Our favorite recipe from this site. Thank you!

My boyfriend and I made this tonight and it was really good. I added broccoli, bell peppers, and snap peas to the recipe. It did take a long time to make but was well worth it. We will definately make this again.

I thought this was a very good dish. I didn't use red pepper flakes because I didn't have any.Other than that I followed the recipe to the T. Next time I may alter a few things. I like to use the recipe exactly as is the first time because you never know what you might discover you like. Very good!!

I don't like my orange chicken tasting too much like orange, so I left out the orange zest. Additionally, I used half a teaspoon of Sriracha instead of the red pepper flakes. No ginger. White onion instead of green. White vinegar instead of rice vinegar. Ten chicken nuggets (could have used more) instead of frying the chicken myself. I added about 1/4 lb of broccoli and half a green pepper. With all those changes accounted for, this recipe was definitely a keeper.

This was ok, but definitely too sweet. Reduce the sugar by 1/4-1/2c if you don't like your dinner tasting like dessert.

Very good recipe. It takes some time but it's worth it. I had to cut back on the red pepper flakes because although my husband and I thought it was great, the kids complained it was "burning their faces off". As suggested by another reviewer, I minimized the stirring of the chicken to keep the coating intact and reduced the amount of cornstarch.

Ridiculously good. Tastes like gourmet Chinese food (it could have come from PF Changs!) Make sure you shake of the extra flour, and then cook until the coating is crispy. Not recommended for reheating. I served it with white rice, and sugar snap peas with sesame seeds & olive oil.

YUM! I followed the recipe exactly... only I didn't have 2 hrs to let it marinate so I only marinated for 1 hr and it was still amazing! Added in some broccoli at the end and put it over white rice, everyone gobbled it up! I can't wait to make it again!

Pretty good, but would be better off putting the chicken in the fridge after flouring to hold the breading...

My family loved this dish. I have made it twice. The second time that I made it, I added a bag of Oriental vegetables to it and it made for a complete meal, along with rice. Thank you for the great recipe.

The sauce has a great flavor but I like my sauce a little thicker so I added 2 more tbsp. of cornstarch. I also tossed in 2 bags of frozen stir fry veggies. Plenty of sauce for 4 breasts and all those veggies. Thanks for the great recipe!

I made this using beef instead of chicken so I know my review isn't for the true recipe, but the flavor in this sauce is excellent! I marinated bite-sized chunks of a chuck roast for 24hrs plus then breaded it as directed. If I were to do it again I would probably skip that step. Then cooked as directed. I stir fried some onion, red pepper, celery, broccoli, and carrots to toss with the meat and served over rice. I will definitely make again and try it with the chicken.

This recipe is pretty time consuming. I always take two days, marinating the chicken overnight. The results are well worth the time.

Just ok - oil amount was not nearly enough to brown the chicken. Flour amount was way too much to coat chicken.
