To achieve that signature crispiness, double fry the chicken. First, fry the chicken pieces until they are just cooked through.

Then remove them from the oil, let them rest for a few minutes before frying them again until they are golden brown and extra crispy.

How long will my Panda Express Orange Chicken keep in the fridge?

As I’m sure you will know, recipes like this Panda Express orange chicken are best served hot from the wok. If you do want to store leftovers, you can though.

This orange chicken will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days. Make sure to store the chicken in airtight containers to prevent it from drying out.

Also, if possible, store the sauce separately from the chicken. This helps maintain the chicken’s crispiness and prevents it from becoming soggy.

To reheat, just heat up your wok with a little oil and toss the leftovers around until heated through. That or use your microwave but a wok is the best choice.

Can I freeze the orange chicken?

Yes, you can freeze this orange chicken recipe. Allow both the chicken and sauce to cool completely before freezing.

Orange Chicken can be frozen for up to 3 months. For the best texture, freeze the cooked chicken and sauce separately. This prevents the chicken from becoming soggy when reheated.

Pro Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: For the best flavour, use fresh garlic, ginger, and orange zest in your sauce. Fresh ingredients bring a more vibrant and authentic taste compared to dried or powdered alternatives.

Get the batter right: When coating the chicken, ensure each piece is evenly and lightly coated in the batter. Shake off any excess batter before frying. This helps achieve an even, golden-brown crust without it being too thick or soggy.

Maintain oil temperature: Keep the oil temperature consistent at around 350F/180C when frying the chicken. If the oil is too hot, the chicken will burn on the outside before cooking through. If it’s too cool, the chicken will absorb more oil and become greasy. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature and adjust the heat as needed.

What if you don’t have an oil thermometer?

They aren’t expensive but if you don’t have one and would still like to try this Panda Express orange chicken, try this…

Place a wooden chopstick in the oil. If thousands of little bubbles start forming around it on contact, your oil is ready to cook.
