• 1 lemon, juiced

• ¼ cup parsley, minced

• Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes to taste

Easy and Wholesome Baked Orange Chicken

Ingredients

• 1 lbs chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces

• 2 eggs, beaten

• 1 cup panko bread crumbs

• 3 cups broccoli florets

• 3 green onions, greens sliced thin

• salt

• fresh cracked black pepper

• sesame seeds, optional, for topping

• crushed red pepper flakes, optional, for topping

• olive oil

• spray oil

For Sauce:

• 2 navel oranges -  zest one orange, juice both oranges
• ¼ cup honey
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 1 tbsp freshly minced garlic
• 2 tsp fresh grated ginger, or sub 1/2 tsp ground ginger
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 2 tbsp cornstarch
• sriracha sauce, optional: mild – 1 tsp; med – 2 tsp; hot – 3+ tsp

Instructions 

1. Begin preheating the oven to 425° F and spray a large rimmed baking sheet with oil.

2. Season the chicken pieces with salt and fresh cracked black pepper and pour the panko out onto a wide plate. Working in batches, coat the chicken in the beaten egg then press into the panko to coat. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet as spaced out as possible.

3. Spray the tops of the chicken pieces with oil. Place the chicken into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, flip each piece and rotate the pan when you place it back into the oven. Bake for another 7-10 minutes until the chicken is crispy and cooked through.

4. Meanwhile, on a separate baking sheet, toss the broccoli with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 10 minutes, tossing halfway through, until crisp and charred in a few spots. OR, pan fry broccoli in a swirl of olive oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.

5. While the chicken cooks, make the sauce. Combine the soy sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl and whisk until fully combined. Pour into a small saucepan, then add the rest of the ingredients for the sauce and mix well. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer until a thick sauce forms, about 5 minutes.

6. Transfer the cooked chicken into a large mixing bowl, drizzle the sauce over the chicken and toss to coat (you may not want to use all of the sauce, so add it in steps until the chicken is coated to your liking). Add in the broccoli and toss to combine. Serve immediately topped with green onion, sesame seeds, and crushed red pepper. Great on a bed of white rice!

*Note- there’s probably enough sauce here to scale up to about 1.5 lbs of chicken if desired!

Please comment to let me (and everyone else) know if I should post some of the many gifs I have accumulated over the years. They almost always have text in the video showing the ingredients and their proportions, but I don't have the actual text saved.

I like to post the text version of the recipe also, so I tend to avoid posting from my collection. But there are some great recipes in there.

I'm too lazy to transcribe them but if people seem to want them anyway hopefully someone will transcribe them for me. Also, you could search for the title and probably find the OP recipe on their website.

Side note: forgive the video attached to this poll. My app (possibly a requirement of my instance/lemmy as a whole) requires a URL or image/video in addition to the title. I guess text only posts aren't allowed. Maybe it's a community requirement considering the nature of this sub. Gifs only makes sense. So forgive me for this text post/poll. It's in good faith to get more content here.

• 2 pork tenderloin (pork fillet), 500g/1lb each

• 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil (or butter)

• 3 garlic cloves , very finely chopped

Pork Tenderloin Rub:

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• 1/2 tsp paprika

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Honey Garlic Sauce:

• 3 tbsp cider vinegar

• 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce, light or all purpose

• 1/2 cup honey (or maple syrup)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 180C/350F.

Mix Sauce ingredients together. Mix Rub ingredients then sprinkle over the pork.

Heat oil in a large oven proof skillet over high heat. Add pork and sear until golden all over.

When pork is almost seared, push to the side, add garlic and cook until golden.

Pour sauce in. Turn pork once, then immediately transfer to the oven.

Roast 13 - 15 minutes for a mid-rare pork loin (150F internal temp) or 15-18 minutes for 155F which will be a solid medium. Medium-rare pork is safe to eat and the tenderloin is so lean it dries out easily, but if you are uncomfortable with seeing any pink in there, aim for 155F and the longer cook time.

Remove pork onto plate, cover loosely with foil and rest 5 minutes.

Place skillet with sauce on stove over medium high heat, simmer rapidly for 3 minutes until liquid reduces down to thin syrup.

Remove from stove, put pork in and turn to coat in sauce.

Cut pork into thick slices and serve with sauce!

Notes:

Again, how done you like your pork is up to you. Here she is prepping it for medium doneness. I make this at home pretty often, I prefer it medium rare but again, it's all up to your preference. I've played around with different flavor combinations--maple syrup, molasses, pomegranate molasses, different vinegars, fruit juices, smoked paprika, cumin, mojo, there are a lot of directions you can go.

Recipe source: Recipe Tin Eats

3 eggs , yolks and whites separated

1/2 cup (110g) caster sugar (superfine sugar)

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

8 oz / 250g mascarpone , good brand (Important - read Note 1)

1 1/4 cups black coffee , hot and strong!

2 tbsp (or more!) Frangelico or Kahlua , or other liquor of choice

6.5 oz / 200g (24 - 30) lady fingers, pavesini or savoiardi biscuits Cocoa , for dusting

Beat yolks and sugar in stand mixer or electric beater on speed 6 to 7 for 10 minutes or until it changes from yellow to pale yellow (almost white), and is thick (see video for consistency). Add vanilla and mascarpone, beat until just combined and smooth. Transfer mixture to a bowl, set aside.

Clean bowl and whisk. Add egg whites and beat until it's stiff (3 minutes on speed 7, should be all white foam, see video!)

Add 1/2 the cream mixture into the egg whites. Gently fold through. When most incorporated, add the remaining cream mixture and fold through until just combined - don't bash out all the air in the egg whites! (Note 4) Mix coffee and liquor together. Quickly dip biscuits in and line the bottom of a 8”/20cm square dish. (See video or step photos above to see how I arrange them). Spread over half the cream, then top with another layer of coffee dipped biscuits.

Spread with remaining cream. Cover, refrigerate for at least 4 - 5 hours, preferably overnight Dust with cocoa powder just before serving - either before you cut or after placing onto serving plates.

Personal notes:

She uses Kahlua here which I like, but I also like to use marsala which is a fortified wine, and I've even tried it with a good quality dark rum. Play around with it to your taste.

The uncooked eggs might turn some people off, and you want to be aware if you're serving it to immunocompromised people or pregnant people. You can temper or pasteurize your eggs at home if you are concerned, but the risk here is very low.

If you are confused about finding savoiardi, they're probably either in the cookie aisle or the "international" aisle of a lot of U.S. stores, but you can use the Instacart app to see what stores have them in stock before you go shopping. They are easier to find now in the U.S. than they were 20 years ago, I'll tell you that much. You want to get the dry ones. Ladyfingers/savoiardi are really easy to make yourself but I advise against it for tiramisu because the fresh ones have a bit too much moisture. You want a really dry cookie to absorb all the liquid.

Ingredients:

Filling

3. Add the parsley, soy sauce and half the F/C sauce. Cook down then remove from the heat.

4. In a deep plate add warm water, dip the rice paper then place on a flat surface. Fill the sheet with 2 spoonfuls of the tofu mix.
