Sweet And Sour Chicken

A great recipe from a good friend of mine...

Dice your chicken into bite size pieces and marinade in pineapple, orange or apple juice.




Saute your chicken.  {you can add a bread coating before sauteing if you like - I did!}  Add orange juice for a sauce.  {Or orange marmalade for sweeter sauce.} You could also add some crushed red pepper flakes for a sweet and spicy taste. 



Serve with fried rice 
{brown rice, soy sauce, scrambled eggs, peas, onions and carrots}
After cooking the chicken, I put steamed broccoli, red pepper, carrots in the mix..  
Add pineapple chunks at the end. 

Use flour to thicken the sauce if needed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To make this recipe in the crock pot, simply cook chicken and sauce and add veggies and pineapple before serving.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Very simple and very yummy!

 
I served it along with sauteed cabbage. 
{Notice my new cast iron skillet!  I love it!!}

  1. That looks really yummy. Orange chicken is one of my favorites, too. Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
