I love Chinese takeout food, but I know that it's very high in sodium and fat. So I got to work at home and created a healthier version. Now I have peace of mind knowing what ingredients are in this slow cooker orange chicken and that it's better for my family. -Barbara J. Miller, Oakdale, Minnesota
