Description

A flavorful and easy orange chicken dish perfect for meal prep.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine orange juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Whisk together until well blended.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with a small amount of water to create a slurry. Add this to the orange juice mixture.
