The Tastiest Orange Chicken Made at Home

[@AM-xo7lr]

Here's an even easier tip for dredging: When coating small pieces like this, I scatter a layer of flour/potato starch, etc., in the bottom of a plastic food container, then the pieces of food and another layer of flour, bang the lid on and give them a good shake. It really makes sure the flour sticks to every tiny portion of the food and that they are ready for cooking.

[@jrubybowman]

or use a plastic baggie - that's what I do

[@gerij777]

Do you use a mixture of flour and potato starch?

[@leslie-annepepin8927]

Made this last night. Cooked chicken in the airfryer, then did stir fry in my wok of onion, orange pepper, cherry tomatoes, added sauce, then chicken. Served with rice. YUM!!!

As close as you can get to deep fried can easily be made at home with an air fryer and it’ll be better for you. Happy Sunday! 💕

Not only a fraction of the sugar but also a fraction of salt !! I rarely eat out but when I do it’s usually because I have gone shopping somewhere and if I eat chinese food, I’m so thirsty the rest of the day I’m miserable ! But I love it so I really LOVE your recipes so I can make it at home !!!! Thank you !

[@zeldamee8216]

Im making orange chicken for Valentine's Day and my husband will be so happy that it's air fried and not deep fried. I don't have potato starch so I'll have to use corn starch. I hope this doesn't change the flavor. Thanks for sharing ALL of your recipes. I have the same attitude as you..I can't be bothered 😂. ❤

[@MrsSam888]

Love your Chinese air fry recipes, can not wait to try this one. I made your air fry sweet and sour chicken and it was fantastic, way healthier than take out. My evo sprayer got replaced by the chosen avocado oil spray bottle which produces a much finer spray and coats food more evenly. They are available at Whole Foods and most grocery stores. I wonder maybe in the future you can make an air fry version of the Chinese salt and pepper fish or shrimp.🌟

[@colleenbeamer6403]

Wow! Love this one, Flo! One of my favourite westernized Chinese dishes is orange chicken. We have a takeout place here called Le Chinois and they make addictive orange chicken. Your recipe is being added to my repertoire - it's nice to have a take on a recipe like this from someone who actually has a Chinese heritage. I even have chicken thighs and potato starch to make this! (You made me do it, LOL).👍👍😋😋😋

first off as a native Texan I have to confidently guess Panda Express... but more on that... would y'all please do cream cheese wontons?!?! Those are SO GOOD and are my weakness. PE's version is so good but they use so much sugar in their food that I haven't been able to eat there in quite some time. I would super love y'all to do a vid on how to make those wontons next!

I am making this tomorrow! I don't have the fryer but I am going to do my best to copy this! The one thing I don't like about that place is the fact that the chicken is too hot/spicy for me so I am going to really enjoy the calmer version! Thank you so much!

I made it like I said I would! I used cut up chicken breasts and I fried mine. That sauce was so good my son was still thanking me on day two!

[@patsmith5947]

I do love Chinese food, I love Orange chicken too. And so many other dishes. I have made Chow mein, Sweet and Sour Pork, Fried Rice, Egg rolls and plum sauce. My husband really liked it when he was alive. I made that meal for my In-laws and his mom was so mad at me for fixing that meal because she said her husband didn’t like that food. They had driven 4 hours to come visit. My husband started gobbling it up and his dad watched him, then he said he would try a little. I fixed him a plate and he tasted it and said “hey this is good.” I laughed and I said I know. My mother-in-law tried a little and said she liked it. They would eat Chinese food after that.

[@sherryw-ponyluv-er2394]

Another must try!!!

[@tammyjenkins7305]

I'm curious instead of coating 1 piece at a time, that would drive me crazy, have you tried putting 1/2 the batch in a plastic bag and shaking them in the potato starch, seems like that would be soooo much faster. Love watching you and Dude.. :).

Hi, I am not an experienced air fryer yet. I made this and it was great. I think I had way too much potato starch or not a misty enough oil spray.

Also, I forgot to use the oil in the air frier and my chicken did not look like yours. I ended up deep frying for a few minutes. After all my missteps, must say the chicken was great! Loved it.

[@johncspine2787]

Try putting the chicken on a rack over a sheet tray after frying into a hot oven, really crisps it up! Restaurants do a double deep fry, I like the first deep fry, then hit oven trick. Another great trick for chicken cutlet katsu is to toast the panko in a skillet with oil, then dredge the chicken in flour, egg, then the toasted panko, then onto parchment on sheet tray into an oven to bake..really toast the panko in the skillet well, it won’t darken much because of the oil.
