Our kids love orange chicken so this was my first time attempt making homemade orange chicken. The batter for the chicken is a perfect balance of light & crispy. Loved it! I will keep the batter recipe handy for future recipes! There was plenty of orange sauce for all, but the only constructive criticism was that it was “too orangy” so next time I will not include the orange zest. I made a double batch of this recipe since I need to feed three hungry men and that was a perfect amount with just a little leftover. This recipe was really awesome! I will be making it again, but will need to take in consideration the 1.5-2 hr prep & cooking time (deep frying takes a while).

This was really good!! I agree with Cathey, the sauce was the right balance. It also made a good amount of sauce which is nice. I always follow exactly the recipe the first time and I don’t think I will need to ever make any changes, it was definietly a “keeper” per my husband.

This is wonderful, the chicken is tender and sweet. The sauce has the right balance of sweet, heat and acid. I beat the egg whites till frothy then add the other ingredients. The batter is a keeper for any protein, fish, chicken, pork, or shrimp. I did not add the baking powder, don’t think it missed it. I especially like it’s Gluten Free (use tamari instead of soy sauce). Thanks for posting Kimberly.
