Step-by-Step Instructions for Orange Chicken Sauce
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine orange juice, sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic powder, and red chili flakes. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer for about 3 minutes.
- Make a cornstarch slurry by whisking together cornstarch and cold water. Slowly pour this into the simmering sauce while continuously stirring. Cook for another 5 minutes until thickened.
- Set up a dredging station with one dish for the cornstarch, flour, and salt mixture, and another for whisked eggs. Coat chicken pieces first in egg, then in flour mixture.
- Heat neutral oil to 350°F. Fry chicken pieces in small batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- Transfer fried chicken to a bowl, pour the sauce over, and toss gently. Garnish with green onions and serve warm.
