HEALTHY ORANGE CHICKEN
Skip the takeout and make this Healthy Orange Chicken Recipe for dinner! A simple, delicious dinner that is paleo, gluten free, packed with flavor and done in under an hour! Made with just a few ingredients, it’s tasty and easy to make!
This recipe is one that I always turn to when I’m feeling uninspired + need to get dinner on the table, or if just want something plain delicious.
This was one of those recipes that as I was making it I was a little skeptical.. Would the flavor be right? Would the sauce be thick enough or would I just be eating chicken coated in a weird orange juice mixture?? So many questions. Buuuut thankfully that didn’t happen!
The flavor was so on point. A little bit sweet, just the right amount of spice. It was perfectly thick and had the same consistency of the amazing sauce you get at a restaurant!

Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cleaned + cut into 1 inch cubes
- 4 cups steamed broccoli
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
Sauce
- 2.5 cups orange juice
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos
- 2 tsp sriracha
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp orange zest
- 1 tbsp fresh or ground ginger
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional if you prefer less spicy)
Instructions
- In a large frying pan, cook the cubed chicken in the toasted sesame oil until the edges are brown and slightly crispy (Approx 5-10 minutes)
- As the chicken is cooking, stir together the sauce mixture in a separate bowl
- Once the chicken is thoroughly cooked remove it from the pan and place it off to the side in a separate bowl.
- Pour the sauce mixture into the same pan you cooked the chicken in.
- Bring the sauce mixture to a boil for 15-20 minutes, stirring every minute or so until it starts to thicken. (You will know it has thickened when you scrape the pan and it pulls away from the pan)
- When the sauce thickens, add the cooked chicken back in + stir to coat the chicken
- Serve over steamed broccoli or zucchini noodles for a paleo option, or rice/quinoa.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds + enjoy!
