Orange Chicken from Panda Express used to be my oldest daughter's all-time favorites for eating out food. Then, she was diagnosed with Celiac Spru. This dish is jam packed with oriental orange flavors without any fear of gluten.
INGREDIENTS:
2 lbs. Boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces
Olive oil
Heat large saute pan to medium high heat. Drizzle with oil. Add chicken. Cook until lightly browned and white throughout.
SAUCE:
1 1/2 tsp. Sesame seeds
3 Tbsp. Corn Starch
1 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
1/2 Tbsp Onion Powder
3 Tbsp Brown Sugar
1 Tbsp White Rice Vinegar
3 Tbsp GF Soy Sauce
1 1/2 Cups Orange Juice
1/2 Cup Apple Juice
Wisk sauce ingredients together in a small bowl while the chicken is cooking. Allow to sit while waiting. When chicken is cooked thoroughly, wisk one last time and pour over the chicken. Bring to a simmer and cook for one minute (or until cornstarch cooks "clear").
If you started your white rice before cooking the chicken, dinner's ready! ENJOY.
