How to cook orange chicken (video)

How To Cook Orange Chicken. I always hear the word orange chicken especially in fast foods. Orange chicken is a Chinese-American dish of Hunan origin (a province in China). Accordingly, the orange chicken recipe was modified when brought in North America for the purpose of adapting to the American palate. The variety of orange chicken most commonly found at American fast food restaurants consists of chopped, battered, and fried chicken pieces coated in a sweet orange-flavored chili sauce, which thickens or caramelizes to a glaze.

2 lbs boneless chicken breast, cubed

¼ teaspoon pepper
cooking oil

2 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
