Directions
Mandarin Orange Chicken Delight, This is a light and easy chicken dish with a brightly-flavored sauce of Mandarin orange juice, lemon juice, soy sauce, and honey The chicken is then served with the oranges and topped with slivered almonds and chow mein noodles on a bed of rice The whole thing takes about 15 minutes to prepare and about 30 minutes to cook, so long as you defrosted the chicken ahead of time Enjoy!, The sauce was okay as a base but it was kind of flat on its own I added pepper, garlic power, salt, and some of my homemade chili oil and it was better , Wowza! This was not what I expected at all I was thinking it was an American dish and I turned up with an outstanding Asian dish! This recipe was SO good and wayyy better than expected Tastes just like restaurant lemon chicken but with mandarins I love it and thank you for this recipe
