SLOW COOKER ORANGE CHICKEN
Why rush out for disappointing fast food when you can take it slow and enjoy the best version of the same meal? Slow Cooker Orange Chicken practically cooks itself, so you still have that don’t- need-to-worry feeling that fast food provides without having to leave the house. Its savory chicken is coated in the same sweet and tangy citrus glaze that gets everyone excited. Slow Cooker Orange Chicken satisfies cravings with its beautiful balance of flavors and its surprising simplicity. INGREDIENTS • 1 1/4 pounds chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, and cut into 1-inch chunks 1/4 cup cornstarch • salt, to taste • pepper, to taste • 1/4 cup vegetable oil • 3/4 cup orange marmalade • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar • 1 teaspoon sesame oil • 1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional) • 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced (optional) • rice, cooked, for serving (optional)
DIRECTIONS 1. In a medium bowl, add the chicken, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. 2. Toss to combine and evenly coat the chicken. 3.
