Orange Chicken Thighs

by Nora Nolasco

View Profile

This American-Chinese favorite features chicken thighs marinated in garlic, white pepper, and sweet paprika, then lightly coated in rice flour and fried until golden. They’re paired with a glossy orange glaze infused with ginger and a touch of chili—to drizzle over the top as you like. On the side: fried rice with slices of Chinese sausage, plus sautéed bell peppers and onions. Finished with scallions and toasted sesame seeds, this plate hits sweet, salty, and savory, all in balance.
