Ingredients

Marinade

  • 60 ml Soy sauce, shoyu

  • 30 g Koruzni škrob

  • 2 spoons Water

  • 2 spoons Oil, vegetable oil, canola

  • 700 g Meat, chicken, breasts

  • pieces Sesame seeds, dried

Sauce

  • 180 ml Juice, orange

  • 2 spoons Sugar, brown

  • 1 spoon Koruzni škrob

  • 1 spoon Soy sauce, shoyu

  • 1 spoon Hoisin sauce

  • 2 teaspoons Vinegar, apple

  • 1 teaspoon Orange, shell

Steps

  1. Rinse the chicken under running water and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut it into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, mix water, soy sauce, and cornstarch until smooth. Add the chicken and mix well to ensure the marinade evenly coats all pieces. Let the chicken marinate for 5 minutes.

  2. In a small bowl, mix orange juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and grated orange zest until smooth.

  3. Heat oil in a wok (or deep pan). Add the marinated chicken pieces (discard any excess marinade) and quickly stir-fry them. Once the chicken is nicely golden brown, pour in the orange sauce. Cook over moderate heat for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir the dish frequently while cooking.

  4. Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the prepared dish. Serve with noodles or rice.
