Chinese food, without the MSG.
Ingredients
- 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into bite size pieces)
- 3 T fat (coconut oil works well here)
- juice of 2 oranges*
- zest from 1 orange
- 1 t fresh ginger
- 3 T coconut aminos or tamari sauce
- 1 t chili garlic sauce or sriracha
- 3 green onions, chopped
Method
In a medium size sauce pot, add the orange juice, zest, ginger,
coconut aminos and chili garlic sauce or sriracha. Set over medium heat
and let simmer to reduce and thicken while the chicken cooks. In a saute
pan, heat 3 T of the fat of your choice, over medium high heat. Add the
chopped chicken thighs and cook until a nice brown crust has developed
on the chicken pieces, about 6 minutes. Add the chicken to the sauce pot
and stir to coat with the orange sauce. Serve topped with sliced green
onions. *Taste your oranges. If they don’t taste orange-y, then neither
will this dish. Use tangerines if you gotta or add a teaspoon of
sweetener until you’re satisfied with the flavor.
