- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1″ cubes)
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons canola oil (or vegetable oil)
- ½ cup orange marmalade
- ½ cup orange juice (unsweetened)
- ⅓ cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- ⅓ cup reduced sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Steps
Place chicken pieces in a large bowl and add 3 tablespoons corn starch, salt and pepper. Stir to coat.
Heat a large pan over high heat and add oil (add more oil if needed to coat the bottom of your pan).
Add chicken to the pan and cook over high heat, turning once, just until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, make the Orange Chicken sauce. Whisk together the marmalade, juice, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger, pepper flakes, chicken broth and 2 tablespoons corn starch.
Once chicken is browned, reduce heat to medium and add the sauce. Cook and stir until sauce has thickened and chicken is cooked through (165° F minimum), about 10 minutes.
Serve over rice as desired.
