Binging with Babish: Sugar Chicken from Rick & Morty

Okay so yes, this was pretty much just an excuse to make orange chicken. BUT: little did Rick & Morty writers know that their (frankly scathing) joke at Panda Express’ expense would set in motion a chain of events leading to my discovery of just how sugar can be a carrier of orange flavor. Or did they? I mean they wrote Rick & Morty, I’m clearly out of my depth.

I used to work in a Japanese restaurant and one of their tricks for a lighter tempura batter is to use less water and a little bit of ice.

Ok I have to say, I really appreciate the emphasis on the value of the flavor added by MSG, which is a compound that, like sodium chloride, aka salt, is simply a spice that makes things taste nice. It was only cruel and rampant racism against Asian-Americans in the 40s and 50s that gave MSG the stigma that unfortunately it has been unable to shake. (That's why you still see on many Asian foods and ingredients in the supermarket, an MSG free stamp, to encourage biased consumers to still buy the products.)

It would be really interesting if you had an episode where you went back and changed/improved some of your older recipes. Give them the ol' spruce up.

@Obama IV where at? I'm in ohio and we dont have it at any of the pandas near me :(

[@theinvisiblebrick636]

Most people refer it as Orange chicken. Or at least my family does...

[@randomsandwichian]

No worries, you've got either Sweet Sour Chicken/Pork or General Tso Chicken to fill that itch, same thing pretty much.

@Obama IV America bad. Haha Funny...

I live in Vancouver, WA and I've never heard of Sugar Chicken.

@@ashirizly Well yeah but a lot of my humor is self deprecating If you don’t feel like googling that means that I tell jokes that make fun of myself

[@ashirizly]

@@s.nifrum4580 I get it, but in case you actually had self esteem issues, I hoped my reply would help a little. Now I wonder, what made you think I wouldn't know the term "self deprecating"? Was it because I apparently missed your humor? Just curious

I made this last week and it came out so perfect! I live in the UK and have always wanted to try Panda Express orange chicken but we don't have it here. I made it again tonight and I have no idea what I did wrong but it didn't taste like it did last week! Think I'll need to try it again another time and work out what I did wrong!

[@thiccllama53]

you did two-no three things wrong. To get much more crispy chicken, fry in a non-newtonian batter, and double fry, once at a low, than a high temperature. You shouldve also marinated the chicken in white pepper and a SWEET wine. it would also have been beneficial to marinate the chicken in some orange juice.

[@kurtg5405]

Seriously so much nicer than battering chicken. Protip, get a massive ziplock bag with the coating ingredients when you do a similar dish, and add a dash of chinese five spice to the party, along with some white pepper. Shake that zip lock bag up - no mess on your hands, and perfect coating every time. just dispose of the bag once you're done breading.

[@jaredadkinson]

It might be different for orange chicken, but I know for sweet and sour chicken you can batter it by dipping it in just cornstarch and THEN in egg and then fry. It’s a bit peculiar to do it on that order and I’m still not completely sure why that works better but it just seems to work better when you do. Maybe you can try both for a recipe and compare/explain the differences? 👉🏻👈🏻

[@thememaster44]

In the movie "Cloudy with a chance of meatballs" (the first one) theres a part where the mayor tries to order "A pizza stuffed into a turkey, deep fried and dipped in chocolate" and I would love to see you make that! haha

It’s interesting watching the improved and regular version be made, honestly the improved version looks like the correct way to make it rather then let’s say the online recipe.

[@nataliaclaudio589]

I tried this from Tasty’s video and switched the chili flakes for paprika, halved the vinegar and substituted it for rice vinegar, and subbed the OJ for lemonade and it was pretty great. Definitely gonna try Babish’s version next!
