Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup bean sprouts (optional)
  • 1 (6 ounce) package crispy chow mein noodles

Directions

  1. In a small bowl combine the orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, salt, garlic and brown sugar. Mix well.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium high heat. When oil begins to bubble, add chicken. Saute until cooked through (no longer pink inside), about 7 to 10 minutes.
  3. Add orange sauce mixture to chicken and cook until sauce begins to bubble. Add flour, a little bit at a time, until sauce has thickened to your liking. Add bean sprouts and cook for 1 minute; serve hot over chow mein noodles.
