This is my low calorie version of certain fast food chains Orange Chicken. Most of the ingredients are "to taste", but this will give you the basic idea.

Ingredients

1/3 cup orange juice concentrate
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
2 -3 minced fresh garlic cloves
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon chili flakes
3 -4 chicken pieces (I prefer breast meat)
1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
1/2 tablespoon orange zest (for garnish)

Steps:

Combine orange juice concentrate, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil and chili flakes in a bowl.
Add chicken pieces (either cut or whole).
Marinate 4-6 hours minimum (you get more orange flavor the longer it marinates).
*For whole chicken pieces, it can be grilled on a BBQ or in a skillet.
*For cut chicken pieces, it works great as a stir-fry over rice. (NOTE: for cut/smaller pieces of chicken, marinate for for closer to 2-3 hours).
Sprinkle chicken with sesame seeds and orange zest, serve and enjoy.
