(Popular and All-Time Favorite Chinese recipes: Broccoli Beef, Sweet and Sour Pork, Egg Drop Soup, Kung Pao Chicken, Cashew Chicken, Fried Rice, Chow Mein, Mongolian Beef, and more.)
Orange chicken is a popular Chinese dish in the United States. Called 陈皮鸡 in Chinese language, orange chicken is of Hunan origin. As with most Chinese recipes served in the United States, the likes of Panda Express have butchered it to a goopy, sticky, and unappetizing mess. So, when my readers requested for my orange chicken recipe, I resolved to share a great recipe for orange chicken.
Orange chicken (also known as orange peel chicken or tangerine chicken) derives its name from the use of dried orange peel (陈皮) in the recipe. As dried orange peel is not commonly available for most people, I used fresh orange zest as a replacement, which works well. As orange chicken is originally a Hunan dish, you can’t do without some dried red chilies…
Below is my orange chicken recipe. Try out my orange chicken recipe and I am sure you will like it.

Lala we make it all the time because I don’t like to purchase restaurant foods. It’s DELISH!
Just wanted to drop by and thank you for a great orange chicken recipe. I modified it recently to use up the last of my tangerines, and it was delicious! Will be writing a blog post about it tonight. :)

I have always enjoyed your website.
Very easy-to-follow recipes and I have tried both your sweet & sour pork and orange chicken recipe.
Fabulous and my husband loves it.
Thank you for sharing and looking forward to more of your posts.
Hi Bee,
Love your recipes, but I can’t get the link to work for this tempting orange chicken! Can you please check?
Just made this. Actually, just dipped in a flour and cornstarch mix instead of using the batter for the chicken, but used your recipe for the sauce and for how to finish with the garlic and ginger saute. I tripled the sauce because I had a pound and a half of chicken. And I forgot to add the chicken broth, woops. Turned out yummy! Wasn’t that crispy though, so maybe I’ll try your batter next time.
