Ingredients
-
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
zest of one orange
3 cloves garlic, minced (or pressed through garlic press)
1 tbsp crushed red pepper
2 tbsp peanut oil
2 tbsp sesame seeds
1 orange, sectioned
2 cups fresh green beans
2 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp sugar
1.5 tbsp cornstarch
3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp rice vinegar
Directions
1. In a large skillet, heat oil and fry garlic, orange zest, sesame seeds and chili pepper flakes until fragrant.
2. Add chicken and saute until browned.
3. When chicken is tender with a nice brown coat, add sauce mixture and allow to bubble and thicken (happens almost immediately). Allow to darken in color as sugar caramelizes, then remove from heat. Serve over steamed rice.
