    Szechuan Orange Chicken, From a magazine of quick meal recipes. The recipe calls for blood orange juice, but I’ve used fresh regular orange juice (Odwalla brand) and it works just fine. This recipe has a fairly mild, sweet, orangey flavor., Blood oranges aren’t available here yet, so used naval oranges instead. But I favor the bloods so I’ll be sure to try it again in a couple months. Other than that, made exactly as directed. My family agreed that it was a bit mild for our tastes. So in the future I would up the heat with more chili flakes or a little chili oil with the chicken. Thanks for sharing, Eve! Made for Unrated Asian Recipe tag in the Asian forum.
