Orange Chicken

Orange Chicken

I converted this recipe I was given by my neighbor to make it gluten free.  (Not that it takes much conversion to change soy sauce to tamari sauce:)

1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup sesame seeds
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves cut in bite sized pieces
1 bunch chopped green onions

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups orange juice, 1/2 cup tamari sauce (GF soy sauce), 4 Tablespoons sugar.  Bring it to a boil.  Turn down the heat and let it cook down while you prepare the chicken.

Combine cornstarch, sesame seeds, eggs, salt, and pepper.  Add chicken and combine thoroughly to coat the chicken.

In a wok or non-stick skillet, heat about 1/4 cup olive oil over medium heat.  Fry the chicken in the hot oil.  You may have to fry the chicken in a couple of batches in order to avoid overcrowding the pan.

When chicken is cooked thoroughly, add 1 bunch of chopped green onions.  Serve over rice.
