#1,104: Orange Chicken with Asparagus


I've not been having much luck with new recipes lately.  We either seem to not enjoy it or we are a house divided.  This recipe was one that the girls and I enjoyed but Brian did not.  This is a sweet chicken and sauce, which is exactly why Brian wasn't a big fan.  I definitely enjoyed it though!

Serves 2:

1 tbsp. sesame oil
4 oz chicken, sliced into 1/2 inch strips
1 minced garlic clove
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
2 c chopped asparagus
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp honey
1 tsp sesame seeds
juice and zest of 1 orange
1/2 c cooked brown rice (I omitted)


Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté chicken, garlic and red pepper flakes for 7 minutes. Add chopped asparagus and cook 3 minutes more.

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame seeds, and juice and zest of 1 orange. Add to skillet and cook 1 minute. Serve over 1/2 cup cooked brown rice.
