Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 Tbsp canola oil
1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken
1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
1 onion, chopped
2-3 clove garlic, finely chopped
2-3 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
1 Tbsp hot sauce
2 tsp tamari (soy sauce)
1/4 c hoisin
1/4 c orange marmalade
1/2 c chicken stock
1/2 c cashews
3 scallions, thinly sliced, on a bias
4 c cooked brown (or white) rice

Steps:

  • 1. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of oil, about 2 tablespoons. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. When the pan is very hot, add in the meat and stir-fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the pan and reserve on a plate.
  • 2. Add the bell pepper, onion, garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry until tender, 3-4 minutes. While that's cooking up, stir together the hot sauce, tamari, hoisin sauce, orange marmalade and stock in a small bowl.
  • 3. When the veggies are tender, return the chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce over everything. Add the cashews to the skillet, toss to coat and continue cooking until the sauce thickens up, about 1 minute.
  • 4. Serve the stir-fry over brown rice, garnish with scallions.

I'm not a big fan of cashews, so I omitted them from this recipe. The dish was still delicious without them.

This dish is a bit messy to eat, but it's so worth it. The combination of flavors and textures is amazing.

I'm a vegetarian so I made this dish with tofu instead of chicken. It turned out really well! The tofu absorbed the sauce perfectly and had a great texture.

I served this dish over rice and it was delicious. The sauce is so flavorful that it really enhances the rice.

I added a little bit of heat to this dish by using a spicy orange marmalade. It gave the sauce a nice kick without being too overpowering.

I made this dish with chicken thighs instead of breasts and it turned out great. The thighs were nice and moist, and the sauce coated them perfectly.

I love that this recipe uses fresh oranges instead of orange juice. It gives the dish a much brighter and more authentic flavor.

This dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.
