You will need:
Orange Juice, Apple Cider Vinegar, Honey,
Soy Sauce, Cornstarch, Oil (I used Olive because that's
what I had!), Rice, Chicken, and
your favorite stir-fry vegetable blend.
In a small bowl, combine 2 Tbsp. Vinegar

2 Tbsp. Orange Juice
4 tsp. Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp. honey and
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch.
(sorry for the blinding whiteness)
Whisk it all together and set aside.Cut into bite-sized pieces 12 oz. of chicken
(about 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts)
I'm using my Cutco Small Chef Knife, and the chicken
is still partially frozen. Sooo much easier to cut that way.
And the great knife really helps, too. I love my Cutco knives!
Start the rice cooking. I used 2 cups boiling water
and 1 cup rice (= 3 cups cooked).
Bring the water to a boil, pour in the rice, give it a stir,
put the lid on and turn the burner to Low or Off.
Set the timer for 20 minutes and forget about it.
Orange Glazed Chicken Stir-Fry
While the rice is cooking away, put 2 Tbsp. oil into a large skillet
(or wok if you're cool enough to have a pan for every kind of recipe).
Stir fry the veggies until crisp-tender.
no longer pink. I add a little more oil to the skillet to do this.
The bowl of potion that we made earlier? Time for it to go to work.
Pour the honey/orange juice/soy sauce... you get the idea...
mixture over the chicken. Cook and stir until it thickens a bit.
Stir in the vegetables and cook until everything is heated through.About this time the rice should soon be done.
When it is, lift the lid and beautiful, cooked rice should be
looking at you. I'm not a pro. rice cook, but that's how I do it.
Plate the goods and dig in!!

This looks really good! I'll have to try it sometime, using some Splenda for the honey. It should work out just fine.
Orange-flavored savory dishes really aren't my thing, but this is tempting!
Cate - it's not so much "orange" flavored as it just gives it a little "tangy kick". I don't know, it's hard to describe :) But my tastebuds don't scream "ORANGE!!!" when I eat this.
Yum!!! This is going in my to-make book!!
