[Music] hi guys I'm some young gasps welcome to Asian at home and today I'm going to show you how to make delicious the healthy version of orange chicken I know you love which you can because I love orange chicken but it's a little too happy to eat every day or a couple times of a week so I recreate it at home a lot healthier version so I don't feel so bad about eating it first we are going to cut our chicken breasts and don't worry just because we are using chicken breasts doesn't mean this orange you can will be dry because I'm gonna lick on some real big secret of our Chinese restaurant how to make this chicken breast really succulent and juicy and delicious so anyways you will need the two chicken breasts it's about 1 pound I'm just going to slice it thinly so about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thin just perfect one by size or to bite-size let me tell you if you follow my recipe exactly you won't miss chicken thigh or a different chicken it's so much better so I'm going to transfer chicken into a mixing bowl I'm going to marinate them with 2 TSP of soy sauce and 2 TSP of a Xiao Xuan wine this is Chinese cooking wine if you cannot find it you can use a dry sherry or just regular rice wine but if you don't like cooking with alcohol you can skip it 2 teaspoon of cornstarch the cornstarch you will help the chicken to cook really nice and golden brown and crispy also thicken the sauce a lot quicker and easier and some black peppers and then my secret ingredients doo doo doo doo doo doo drum roll drum not for me baking soda whatever you order from Chinese restaurant is so hinder is so juicy and it's like it you know it's not just regular meat taste and you don't know what it makes texture like that and this is a secret right here I'm sorry or the mr. Ying Ying who owns the Chinese restaurant that I relieve this secretive but I've got to share with people so we won't need a lot we will need the only half teaspoon of baking soda in two chicken breasts and mix everything well all right to prepare chicken this is it satisfy the while we are making the sauce and chopping some vegetables let's make the sauce first first you will need the hoisin sauce this has Chinese five-spice and it's salty savory so I'm going to use one tablespoon of it and one tablespoon of sambal or chili garlic sauce so 1 tablespoon 1 tablespoon of sugar 2 TSP of soy sauce and here we are going to add finally the orange right here I'm going to cut an orange in half just just sit out the orange viscous sauce is so everything will come by and the sugar will detail alright start this dance I'm going to set aside the right next to the chicken so I can chop up some garlic and ginger Cu and needed 2 cloves of garlic I'm just going to roughly chop the garlic that's nothing perfect because I like a little garlic fits in my orange chicken and some ginger you will need the same amount ginger and garlic I'm just going to thinly slice and julienne them and two green onions we are going to add it later but I'm just going to chuck it now so I don't have to chop it later on all right everything is ready all we need to do is cooking so I'm going to turn my wok over high heat and then I'm going to add 3 tbsp of oil all right when oil is hot add garlic and ginger they recorded earlier when you can smell them it takes about 20 seconds 30 seconds we are going to add the chicken just stop in there all of it spread to your chicken breast on your walk so we can cook really crispy on the bottom and we're going to flip it over so start so much in this process because we want a crispy pit and at a couple minutes then we'll turn over see this pretty bit and cook the other side of our couple minutes as well until nice and golden crispy the chicken is about 3/4 its curved so now we are going to add the stuff and stir everything together until Thursday to reduce and thicken with the chicken chicken is a fully cooked smell is veiled uptick you see no more sauce it's running down there's no more runny sauce this is done none of the heat and all the green onions will be chopped and it's all done so I prepare those four of jasmine rice right here and then I'm going to top it with this delicious to healthy orange chicken oh yeah and then sprinkle with some more green onions and some sesame seeds it looks so good if you wanna make fried rice Chinese fried rice goes well with this orange chicken check out the link down below description box bad fried rice will be really good with this I'm kind of a great idea to make the fried rice but it's still really good with regular rice if you like to my deliciously healthy or in the chicken give me a thumbs up and subscribe my channel for more inspirations and idea of Asian home cooking thank you so much for watching me today and remember you can always cook Asian food at your house making it easy and fun i'm sonia longest and this is Asian at home and I will see you next time [Music] [Music]
