SPICY ORANGE CHICKEN

My Spicy Orange Chicken has the same flavor profile as its take-out counterpart, Orange Chicken: the sweet orange, the spicy chilies, and the Asian condiments. I make this without oil, making something much lighter and very tasty.

1 cup orange juice
⅓ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • Stir in green portions of green onions; cook and stir 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
