1 lb/400 g chicken thigh or breast
1 orange
2 cloves garlic
1 stub ginger chili pepper
1 egg white
2/3 tsp salt pepper to taste
1/2(50g) cup cornstarch
1/2(55g) cup flour
1/2(100ml) cup shaoying rice wine (you can use white wine or omit this ingredient completely if you want)
1/2(100ml) cup soy sauce
1/2(100ml) cup vinegar
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp sesame oil
4 tbsp honey
**DIRECTIONS**:
Wash and dry orange. Zest your orange and save the zest for later. Juice the orange and set aside. Grate garlic and ginger. Chop the chilis. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and place into a bowl. Put one egg white into the bowl along with the salt and pepper and give it a quick massage. Add cornstarch and flour and once again, mix it with your hands until chicken is evenly coated. Deep fry in hot oil (350 F/175C) for 4-5 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
For the sauce, combine shaoxing wine, soy sauce, orange, ginger, garlic, chili and vinegar. Heat until boiling then turn to low. Add cornstarch slurry (cornstarch & water) and cook on medium heat until sauce thickens. Add honey and mix well. Add the chicken and a drizzle of sesame oil and mix to coat the chicken. Serve with hot rice.

C0dyL88: “Easy”
Looks great though.
dguenka: I really need to use cornstarch and flour ?! Can I use just one of those ?
KneadedByCats: I’m coming over with egg rolls in 10 minutes.
CapitanWaffles: Looks good! Only suggestion is to make the switch to local, raw honey. Geneneric store bought honey is just bland sugar syrup. Local honeybee honey would still be sweet but with a little more body.
0laugh: Man I’m ashamed to say I actually drooled a little watching this. I think I know what I need to make tonight.
anti_zero: Had some leftover seitan and agave, so I tailored this recipe to be vegan and it was delicious!
okashii_person: For chicken that actually uses ORANGE –
Substitute unsugared (read – fresh pressed) orange juice with vinegar half and half – don’t bring to boil it will make the oj bitter
Or
Marinate in orange juice + 1/2tsp salt for tender juicy goodness.
Or
Alternate sauce – reduce broth of 1/4 orange peel, thyme, 1/2cup red wine, 1tbsp honey and cornstarch to desired consistency
SeasofCheeseburgers: I can taste the sesame oil from here!
the TL:DW of the gif is:
Get some fried chicken and cover it in orange flavored syrup
cdavid84: Well done gif recipe. Can’t think of any criticisms at all.
