    List of Ingredients

    Easy Make-at-Home Chinese Chicken
    Makes 4 servings

    3 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
    2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
    2 tablespoons water
    3/4 teaspoon cornstarch
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    2 carrots, peeled
    1 (12-ounce) package cut-up broccoli and cauliflower florets
    Nonstick cooking spray
    2 teaspoons canola oil
    3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
    1-1/3 cups hot cooked rice





    1. For sauce, stir together orange juice concentrate, soy sauce, water, cornstarch and garlic powder; set aside.

    2. Use bottle opener or ice pick to make 4 to 5 lengthwise cuts down each carrot., not cutting completely through carrot. Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, forming flowers.

    3. Spray nonstick wok or large skillet with cooking spray. Add carrots to wok. Stir-fry over high heat 1 minute. Add broccoli and cauliflower to wok. Stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove vegetables from wok or skillet; set aside.

    4. Add oil to wok. Stir-fry chicken in hot oil 2 to 3 minutes or until no longer pink. Push chicken to sides of wok. Add sauce mixture; cook and stir until boiling. Return all vegetables to wok; cook and stir until mixture is heated through. Serve with hot cooked rice.
