Orange Chicken

 Orange Chicken:

Chinese chicken dishes are my all-time favorite. The chicken dish made of fresh Orange juice is my weakness. Yess! Orange chicken! An easy yet tasty dish in a couple of minutes with the bursting flavor of orange is something irresistible and yummy. The process is common, you need to coat chicken with egg and flour and fry, then make a sauce with fresh oranges and just need to boil the chicken in the sauce and it is ready. Forget about the Chinese takeout and cook a tasty Chinese dish with a blink.
