For a richer flavor, consider marinating the chicken in a portion of the orange sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Adjust the amount of brown sugar to suit your preferred level of sweetness. If you don't have chow mein noodles, the stir fry can also be served over steamed rice or quinoa. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the orange sauce. Tapioca flour provides a glossy finish to the sauce, but all-purpose flour works well as a substitute.

Jan 19, 2025I loved how easy it was to make and the sauce was perfectly balanced. I used brown rice instead of noodles for a healthier option, and it was still delicious.
