Orange chicken is similar to sweet and sour<\/a> chicken in that it’s a flavorful sauce that has some sweetness to it. The base of the sauce is orange juice, but it has many other ingredients that balance out the sweetness and flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of weeknight dinners<\/a> we make at our house are pretty basic. We make some kind of protein (meat or plant-based) with rice or pasta. So, I like to have easy ways to change this up flavor-wise. And that’s where this orange chicken sauce recipe comes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This orange chicken sauce can be served over baked chicken, fried chicken, or air fryer chicken<\/a>. You can add steamed rice, fried rice, or cauliflower rice to fill out the meal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
