Dinner Tonight: Orange Chicken w/ Rice and Sugar Snap Peas
Started the off with a Fried Bologna and Cheese Sandwich, and it hit the spot! I used Kahn's Deluxe
Bologna, Sargento Ultra Thin Colby Longhorn Cheese, and a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Just did the usual, after I had my morning workout got the leaf blower out and cleaned up around the house and the driveway. We have a patch of woods lining the backyard and leaves constantly build up. Then came back in and vacuumed the house and dusted. We have a family member that's a slob, a real slob. Anyway for dinner tonight tried something new, Chicken Helper Ultimate Orange Chicken. So tonight it's Orange Chicken w/ Rice and Sugar Snap Peas.
Love these Chicken Helpers! They have a nice selection of them and easy to prepare. First time I
used the Chicken Helper Ultimate Orange Chicken. The box contains the Rice, Seasoned Chicken Coating, and Zesty Orange Sauce. I added the Water, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Chicken (Perdue Perfect Portions Chicken Breasts), Sugar Snap Peas, and Peanuts.
To prepare it; Pour Rice into 2-quart saucepan; add 1-3/4 cups water. Heat just to boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low to low. Cover; simmer about 20 minutes, without stirring, until Rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. And as that's going on I cut Chicken into 1/2-inch pieces; pat dry if necessary. Placed the chicken in medium bowl. Added the seasoned Coating; tossed to coat. Heat oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add the Chicken to hot oil; cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown on all sides. Simmer; Reduce heat to medium-low. Carefully pour 1/2 cup water into skillet; stir in Orange Sauce. Simmer uncovered about 5 minutes until Sauce thickens and Chicken is no longer pink in center. Also as I turned the heat down I added some Sugar Snap Peas to the mix. Serve with Rice and top with Sea Salted Peanuts.
The dish turned out delicious! Fantastic flavoring to the dish throughout, Chicken; nice crust from the coating and moist and flavorful, the added Sugar Snap Peas and Peanuts added the perfect final touches! Mom and Dad really enjoyed this. For dessert later a SO Delicious Vanilla Dairy Free Mini Sandwiches.
