I’m passionate about oriental flavors, especially sweet and sour dishes. This chicken has that inspiration. The orange sauce is delicious and if you’re the type who loves pepper, you can give this recipe extra heat by adding a little pepper sauce, which goes very well. So let’s look at the ingredients:
2 col. (soup) of soybean oil;
1 col. (tea) sesame oil (optional);
500g diced chicken breast seasoned with salt and black pepper;
1 small chopped onion;
1 chopped yellow pepper;
1 chopped red pepper;
4 col. soy sauce (shoyu) (soup);
1 col. tomato paste (soup);
150ml of natural orange juice;
1 tablespoon of alcohol or white wine vinegar;
1 col. brown sugar (soup);
Green onion, toasted sesame seeds and salt to taste.
Preparation Mode:
Start by heating the soybean oil and sesame oil and browning the chicken breast cubes. When they lose their raw appearance, add the onion and peppers and stir well. Keep on low heat.
Prepare a sauce by mixing orange juice, soy sauce, tomato paste, vinegar and brown sugar in another container.
Add this sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Mix well and cover the wok. Let it boil until it thickens.
Adjust the salt if necessary and if you like spicy dishes, add pepper sauce according to your taste.
When serving, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
I took advantage of this recipe to use my Tramontina stainless steel wok, which is perfect for this preparation.
The tri-ply bottom distributed the heat evenly and cooked the vegetables very evenly. As it maintains heat well, I made the recipe over low heat, and the best part is that even though it took a while to serve, I just left the Wok covered and the chicken remained warm. Not to mention it’s the most beautiful wok I’ve ever seen! Aren’t they beautiful people?
This recipe yields 4 servings. As this Wok is 34 cm in diameter, you can easily double the recipe if necessary. I think that if you don’t already have a Wok Ventura, this recipe is a good reason to get yours, especially since there’s a really cool promotion going on for this type of pan. Take a look HERE It’s worth it, loves!!!
