Orange Chicken

 

This is one of our favorites.  It is easy to make and delicious every time!

 
I started by gathering some orange zest and orange peel from my oranges.


Next, I cut up the chicken and cooked it with a bit of salt and pepper.
Then I made the sauce.  Saute some minced garlic and green onions.  
Then add the tomato sauce.  Add sugar, soy sauce, Sriracha, and orange zest/peel.



Oh, and don't forget to make the sides.  We prefer white rice and sugar snap peas!!

Let the sauce simmer and thicken until it looks something like this....

Then add the chicken back in!  Put everything on the plate and enjoy.


The details:

For the sauce
15 oz can of tomato sauce
a little garlic
green onions to taste
about 1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons Sriracha (or more or less depending on how spicy you like things)
3 tablespoons Soy Sauce
zest from one orange
orange peels from another orange

Sugar Snap Peas
Saute sugar snap peas in pan with a bit of olive oil
Add a splash of soy sauce
sprinkle a little salt
