The great thing about this recipe is that it is easy and straight to the point. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t change it up. I have made this recipe a couple of times and I have experimented a bit. I one time cooked the sauce and added in some orange peel. That was pretty tasty! Another time I added in a little ginger and garlic. Now that was great tasting! Not to mention that I don’t always serve this with rice. Sometimes I like to put this tasty orange chicken over noodles! Yum!
Check out what our friends from Crafty Morning have to say about this:
“I thought I would try their 3 ingredient sauce on top and it turned out lovely!”
Who knew that three little ingredients could make such a flavorful sauce!
Ingredients
- 1 Cup BBQ Sauce (Sweet Baby Ray’s)
- 1 Cup Sweet Orange Marmalade (Smucker’s)
- 2 TBSP Choy Soy Sauce
Crispy Chicken Ingredients:
- 3-4 Chicken Breasts (We used 3)
- 1 Cup Gold Medal Flour/1 Cup Cornstarch (You can use both or either/or)
- 2 Eggs
- Crisco Oil (We used vegetable oil)
Instructions
- In a sauce pan, add the BBQ sauce, marmalade, and soy sauce. Turn the heat on low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring a few times.
- Meanwhile, cut up your chicken breasts into cubes. In one bowl beat 2 eggs, while the other bowl should mix the dry ingredients.
- Dip pieces of chicken in the egg and then cover in flour/cornstarch. Set on an extra plate.
- Add a thin layer of oil to a frying pan and turn your stove on medium/high heat. Once it sizzles, add the chicken to the pan. Let it cook for 3-5 minutes each side until it’s brown and cooked on the inside.
- Set the oily pieces on a paper towel and let drain.
- Add the chicken to the sauce and toss!
- Eat it on top of white rice and enjoy. I think veggies would be good with it such as green peppers or broccoli.
