I love Chinese food particularly orange chicken. Most of this recipe comes from Ree Drummond (Pioneer Woman). We love her cooking. I added vegetables and increased the sauce. The sauce is the star in this recipe. As with most Chinese food recipes you can change up the vegetables to your liking. fenway -

One day i was working at my job (Sobys Southern Cuisine, Greenville Sc) and i was trying to eat better so i thought OK I'm eating chicken tonight, now what do i want to add to it. I figured orange chicken, but originally thinking Chinese or something but took all these fresh ingredients and there you go something from the brain. Easy. Chelcia Jeffries -
