橙汁雞 (ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN)

Ingredient :-
1kg chicken pieces, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon ginger juice, available at supermarkets
1 heap tablespoon corn flour
Orange Sauce (combine)
1 orange juice
1 orange rind
1 tablespoon white vinegar
4 tablespoons caster sugar
4 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon salt
Thickening mixture (combine)
1 tablespoon corn flour
3 tablespoons water

1. Marinate chicken with salt, soy sauce and ginger juice for 1 hour. Sprinkle corn flour onto the marinated chicken. Use your hands to mix all ingredients together.

2. Heat enough oil for deep frying over medium fire. When hot, deep-fry chicken in a single layer until golden, about 5 mins each side. Remove to a plate.

3. In a saucepan, pour in orange sauce mixture and bring to a slow boil. Add thickening mixture. Once sauce thickens, add fried chicken and toss till chicken is well coated with orange sauce.

TIP : You can also cook the chicken in the oven as a healthier alternative. Simply put marinated chicken in oven and bake at 200°C for 30 mins or until cooked. Then toss chicken in cooked orange sauce, as in Step 3.
