5 Steps To Easy Mandarin Orange Chicken


Trader Joe's Mandarin Orange Chicken
If you're looking for an Asian dish to include in your line-up of meals, consider Trader Joe's Mandarin Orange Chicken. 

This dish is so easy you can get away with making it with two ingredients: the chicken and rice. And it still will be a good, filling meal.

But on to my original recipe. While the rice and chicken are cooking, saute green onions and sweet peppers. Once the rice is pulled off direct heat, add the sauteed vegetables to the rice and stir. Let sit two to three minutes while you coat the chicken. 

The bag offers quite a bit of chicken for the price, under $8, and cooks in about 30 minutes. Two sauce packs are included in the bag. But given the amount of chicken, another pack is needed so be sure to coat the meat slowly.

Plate the food. Rice as the base with chicken added atop. Dinner or lunch is served.

I was pleasantly pleased with this meal because it was enjoyable and easy to prepare. It is the most convenient meal-in-a-bag I've cooked so far.
