You'll need.....
-1/4th cup canna oil (more or less depends on your tolorance)
-1/4th cup veggie oil
-15-20 small pieces of raw popcorn chicken
-Panda Express orange chicken sauce.


Put the 1/4th cup veggie oil into a large sauce pan and set to medium heat. After a couple minutes, put in your popcorn chicken, cover and let it sit making sure to flip the popcorn chicken to ensure equal cooking. After about 10 minutes, add your canna oil while stirring and then cover agian. Once you test the chicken and it is almost cooked, stir in the Panda Express orange chicken sauce and cover again for a couple minutes. Once chicken is cooked, turn off the stove and serve hot.

Try combining it with some white or brown rice for a better dish! :)

I just ate it maybe 10 minutes ago; not enough time. Usually 1/4th of a cup of canna oil is a lot for me so I split all the chicken I made into several servings.
The amount of canna oil can, of course be modified to suite your tolorance. ;)

Awesome! I'm not a pro chef or anything but I try my best to get better at cooking dishes, especially for when my girlfriend visits. :) (I don't make her edibles though)

I definitly feel some affect already. This is a great recipe to me. :D:D

Very nice!

We try to make similar sesame, ginger or orange dishes, using chicken, beef, or pork, at least a few times a month, except that we make home made sauce... I've lived in quite a few cities, and as a result, I've been spoiled :P

The sauces are surprisingly easy to make, and come out astoundingly better than the bottled store-bought brands (many of which contain ingredients not used in restaurants, then combined with additional preservatives and the fact that it's not fresh, and the spices and seasonings have over-mingled, it makes a negative impact on the flavor).

For orange chicken, all you need is a little ginger, cyan pepper, soy sauce, orange juice, orange zest, garlic, vinegar, sugar, and I like to use chinese 5-spice powder, and a splash of sake.

Every restaurant does it a little differently, so play with the ratios and you'll find your favorite blend. Then of course you need a meat, and some rice flour. Cook the sauce first, then divide it into two portions, (one third, and a two-third portion... this works well, but ideally, it's best to make two entirely different sauces, a savory marinade, and a thicker, sweeter finishing sauce), set both aside, cut your meat and marinade it in the smaller portion of sauce, then toss the meat in some rice flour, with a pinch of salt, pan fry it separately. Then just at the end, blend your canna oil into the remaining (already-heated) sauce, and then add the sauce to the battered, quick-fried meat in the pan, over a low heat for one minute :)

Alternately, you can skip the breading altogether, and cook the meat after marinading, adding the majority of the sauce at the end, and finally adding your oil, once the pan has been removed from the heat source.


Your recipe is almost perfect for a bottled sauce if that is all you have the time and ingredients/money for, the one suggestion I would make, to avoid degrading potency, is that you should be adding your canna oil to the already-heated sauce, after cooking your chicken!
