1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders, sprinkled with salt and pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 medium cloves garlic, chopped finely or minced
zest from 1 medium orange
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
steamed rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden- about 4 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side until cooked through- about 4 more minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and wrap with foil to keep warm.
Add the garlic to the pan and cook 30 seconds. Add the remaining ingredients to the pan; stir and bring to a boil; continue to stir and boil until the mixture is slightly thickened.
Return the chicken to the skillet; spoon the sauce over the chicken to coat. Serve chicken over rice, if desired, with sauce drizzled on top.
