Instructions to make Orange Chicken with Brussels Sprouts:
- To prepare the chicken batter
- Combine the salt, pepper, flour and corn starch together. Mix well.
- Mix in the egg, water and oil until it looks like a pancake batter.
- Add the cubed chicken thighs to the batter, cover and refrigerate for 45 minutes.
- Heat the frying oil inside a wok. I added about a tsp of minced garlic for flavoring.
- Cook chicken for about 6 minutes per batch or until chicken turns slightly brown. I used a fork and placed chicken and batter in a spoon, then dropped in the oil. This way the chicken is well coated and separated from the other chicken pieces.
- Move the cooked chicken onto a plate lined with a paper towel to soak the excess oil.
- Repeat until all chicken is cooked. It is ok to save some chicken in the batter for the next day. Just keep cover and refrigerated.
- Now for the sauce (heh heh heeeehhh)…..
- In a sauce pan, heat 2 tbs oil.
- As soon as the oil is hot, add the pepper flakes, garlic and ginger. Stir for about 25 to 30 seconds.
- Incorporate in the white sugar and brown sugar.
- Stir in the orange juice just until the sugars are dissolved completely.
- Stir in the vinegar and soy sauce. Continue stirring for about 30 seconds.
- Whisk in the water and corn starch.
- Once the sauce becomes thick, add the remainder of the orange juice.
- Continue stirring. Sauce should still be thick.
- Add the cooked chicken and coat well.
- I personally like to serve this over brussel sprouts (yea I know yuck, right?). But believe me, they go well together and kids will love it…I did say the kids will actually eat the Brussels sprouts.
- Brussel Sprouts quick and simple recipe, takes about 45 minutes in the oven at 375 degrees.
- Wash and cut Brussels sprouts in half. Place in a baking dish. I used a glass baking dish.
- Drizzle a little bit of olive oil over the Brussels sprouts, salt and pepper them. Not too much oil, will defeat the purpose of a healthy dish.
- Mix the Brussels sprouts inside the baking dish and pop in the oven to bake uncovered.
- After I placed the chicken in the fridge, I prepped the Brussels sprouts and placed in the oven. This way everything is done at the same time.
- Serve the orange chicken over the Brussels sprouts.
- Or you can serve the orange chicken with your preference. Enjoy :)
