Orange Chicken – quick and easy Chinese dish with chicken in a citrus sauce. Perfect served with rice and steamed vegetables.
Citrus and chicken go so well together in this dish, just like in my Firecracker Chicken. I serve it with my perfect Instant Pot Rice.
If you are a fan of quick takeout inspired dinners, like my Sesame Chicken, you will love this Orange Chicken. I skipped the heavy breading and frying the meat to simply saute it in oil and then simmer in a delicious honey orange sauce. It’s easy yet bursting in flavor. A perfect quick meal for busy weekdays! This Orange Chicken is as quick and easy as browning the chicken, mixing the sauce ingredients in one bowl and letting everything simmer together. Serve with rice and steamed vegetables, like broccoli or Asian vegetable mix for a simple yet flavorful meal. You can use this recipe for meal prep and keep portions in the fridge for up to 4 days.
