I
don't know if you have a Panda Express near you, but if you do and
you have tried their Orange Chicken you know it's the bomb! This recipe reminds me of their taste. Serve this over rice, will yield 4 servings.
What
you need:
1lb
ground chicken
1T
ginger root minced
2tsp
garlic minced
1/4tsp
hot red chili pepper crushed
1T
rice wine
2T
water
1/2tsp
sesame oil
4tsp
soy sauce
5T
sugar
5T
white vinegar
zest
of 1/2 an orange
1T
water
1T
cornstarch
Now
it's time to cook:
To
make the sauce combine the rice wine, 2T of water, sesame oil, soy
sauce, sugar, white vinegar and orange zest.
To
make the cornstarch mixture, dissolve 1T cornstarch in the remaining
1T of water and set aside.
To
a large pan add 1T oil and ground chicken.
Cook
until a good crust forms before breaking apart, then finish cooking
by breaking it apart with a spatula and cooking for an additional 2-3
minutes.
Once
the chicken is cooked add the ginger, garlic and crushed red pepper
and cook for about 10 seconds.
Add
the orange sauce and bring to boil.
Add
the cornstarch mixture to the pan and cook for a just a few seconds,
stirring until it thickens.
