When you are in a hurry, a stir fry is always a quick and easy way to prepare a meal. The only secret that I have found to this type of preparation is to have all of your ingredients ready to go and within arms reach when you start cooking.
I think the orange-ginger-red pepper flake combination in this stir fry really give this chicken preparation some punch. Play with the amount of red pepper you use depending on how hot you like your food. When you are fixing the orange zest, be careful not to get too much white with your zest since this is what makes it bitter.
SPICY ORANGE CHICKEN STIR FRY(Serves 4)
2 whole chicken breasts, boned and cut into strips 1 Tbsp. cornstarch 2 tsp. ground ginger ½ tsp. red pepper flakes or to taste 2 Tbsp. peanut oil 1 onion, cut into 1-inch pieces ¼ cup orange zest (rind, cut into thin strips) 2 Tbsp. soy sauce 3 Tbsp. orange juice 1 tsp. sugar 1 tsp. vinegar ½ cup slivered almonds, cashews or peanuts
Combine soy sauce, orange juice, sugar and vinegar. Set aside.
Combine chicken, cornstarch, ginger and red pepper. In wok, stir-fry chicken mixture in peanut oil, for approximately 3 minutes.
Add onion and orange zest to wok and stir fry briefly.
Add soy sauce mixture to wok. Cook for approximately 2 more minutes. Add nutmeats.
