Turned out alright. Not sweet enough for me, but it still tastes great! Would make again with a bit more sugar maybe.

This is my cheaters version of orange chicken, as I very rarely have fresh oranges in the house. It comes together really quickly and is a great family friendly meal.

A friend of mine used to work at an Asian restaurant and she passed the recipe on to me 😁I prefer using boneless skin-on thighs cut in chunks, but you can use any cut of chicken!This is best served with rice or noodlesBy the way, no salt is used in this recipe, but the flavor is so awesome you won't miss it!#mychinese

The highlight of my menu today is this, involving crisp, fried chicken bites smothered in a wonderfully sweet and tangy orange sauce. There is a bit of prep work involved here but at the end of the day, nothing beats homemade, right?

This recipe is great because the chicken won’t get soggy after adding the sauce. The sauce has just enough orange flavor that’ it’s not overpowering.You will have some leftover sauce too
