Mandarin Orange Chicken

If you haven't been able to tell yet, I'm a sucker for Chinese American food. I realize how unhealthy it is, but yesterday, I just had a craving for a classic: Mandarin Orange Chicken. Since the recipe was quite similar to the Kung Pao Chicken, I was able to make this dish pretty easily. Although the sauce wasn't quite on point, I still enjoyed my version, and was really satisfied with the texture of the chicken this time.

Mandarin Orange Chicken (Serves 2) (40 Minutes)

Ingredients:

-1/8 cup all-purpose flour

-2 skinless, boneless chicken breast, cubed

-1 tablespoon olive oil

For the sauce...

-1/3 cup hoisin sauce

-1 tablespoon soy sauce

-1/3 cup orange juice

-1 can mandarin oranges, drained

1) Coat chicken in flour.

2) Add olive oil and chicken to a stir-fry pan. Cook until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear.

3) In a bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, orange juice, and mandarin oranges. Mix thoroughly.

4) Add sauce to chicken and stir-fry until meat is evenly coated. Serve and enjoy!
