Orange Chicken


Here is a healthier version of this delicious meal from Skinny Taste. I altered it just a little bit, but check out her blog too, so many amazing recipes.

Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
2 Tablespoons corn starch
1 teaspoon ground ginger
salt & pepper
4 cloves chopped garlic
1 cup fresh or frozen vegetables of choice

Sauce:
1/3 cup orange juice
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1-2 Tablespoons chili sauce (to taste)
2 teaspoons corn starch
1 Tablespoon orange zest

Instructions:
Mix all sauce ingredients together and set aside. Cut the chicken into bite size pieces and coat in corn starch, ground ginger, salt and pepper. Bring medium pan to medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. Add the garlic and cook for about a minute. Add the sauce. Simmer until sauce has thickened.

If adding vegetables, add when you add the sauce. If using frozen vegetables, steam before adding to sauce. Serve over rice or rice noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds.
