Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Start by dicing the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with soy sauce and minced garlic. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together freshly squeezed orange juice, brown sugar, grated ginger, and a splash of soy sauce.
  4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Pour the prepared orange glaze over the cooked chicken and let it simmer until the sauce thickens.
  6. Plate the Asian glazed orange chicken and garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions. Serve with rice or stir-fried vegetables.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat gently in a skillet to keep the chicken's texture.
