Why am i binge watching tasty videos while fasting again?
Same
They constantly pop up in my notifications😫
Honestly same
haram guys😂😋! Ramadan Kareem brothers😘
me rn
Now that I have the recipe, I don't think I'll ever need to go to Panda Express ever again
*goes anyways*
It's still cheaper to order it at the restaurant than to buy the ingredients and make it.
Tom Foolery definitely not, if youre buying the ingredients you will have them on hand for the next time vs you buying all the time
Too bad the recipe is a lie. They are misleading liars trying to look nice for sharing their recipe. I used to work there. This is to make you do this instead of closer recipes online. Basically detouring you to to a road to screw up, then come into the restaurant to get the real thing. They lied to me. Now i will never come in. Ever. Capitalism at work!
I think it's because I'm too lazy to make it, never a good idea to cook when hungry
@@LaBossiereJason that's everywhere
Just made this. Listening to the other commenters, I adjusted the water and flour amounts in the batter, and made double the sauce. End result tasted really similar to what you really get from Panda Express today.
Can you tell the measurements you used if you still remember 😂
tell me too
Who else is on there bed just drooling by looking at this
Xxxstrawberry 3:30AM and I’m drooling in bed
Yep. Trying to convince myself to not go and make this right now
Meeeeee 😫🤤🤤🤤🤤
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
*their
"The story goes all the way back to 87..."
Knowing Chinese recipes he was either going to say 87 BC or 1987
Lmao. Wtf 😂
It was actually 1587
Just like fortune cookies, this recipe was created in America. It was inspired by the dish called "orange peel chicken" from Hunan region. You wont find this orange chicken or fortune cookies in China except if you're in a tourist area.
Loll so true
Dolce Vita Yeah, I actually don’t really know what Chinese food is like because most of the things that I know of where made in America. Same with most Sushis
Edit: Grammar mistakes
Ok, so after doing this about 5 times I can suggest this:
1. the water needed is a little over 2 1/2 cups, as already suggested by someone here.
2. drop the sesame oil at the end, or just use a hint of it. The dish lives well without it.
Other than that, fantastic recipe!! Thanks to Panda Express for sharing this.
Miguel Navarro what oil for frying?
The Hash Slinging Slasher: I use sunflower oil. Hope this helps.
Supposedly it is actually 2 1/2 on their website
Miguel Navarro also I tried it with white meat. Doesn’t work, stick to dark meat thigh and drum are great
The Hash Slinging Slasher use a high heat oil like canola or peanut.
As pregnant I had this craving since long time, and I am very grateful Panda Express shared this recipe, I followed it and WOW, me and my boyfriend ate the whole plate! THANK YOU!
I tried this recipe and it’s amazing 😍 The flavors really show through. I was wondering how it would taste this good cuz there’s very little ingredients but it turned out well. Definitely making this again
I was expecting some Instagrammy Buzzfeedy hack to present their idea of... No. They got a guy representing the Brand directly. That's impressive. You'll never get that out of The Colonel.
The colonel prefers to coloneliazing the world with fatty hormone fried chicken.
It's a fake recipe
@joe jitsu Don't forget the gravy!
or The Arches
This is more than likely a simplified recipe. Giving the original true recipe would be a bad business choice since the more people know how to make this at home the less people will go to eat the real deal
I followed this recipe exactly and omg it came out so good!!
Literally taste better than Panda Express and I love Panda express!!
I got Panda Express once and it was all breading and barely any chicken. Much better to do it at home.
How long did you cook the sauce for and on what heat? My girlfriend loves chicken and was hoping to make this for her for valentines day.
John Moser agreed!
Tom Lamb almost instant but you have to cook it low I almost burnt mine lol
Me too. Killed it.
I love how they actually show you the recipe for their orange sauce !
Came back to say, I've cooked this four times since the start of quarantine, and it's a family favourite!
Listen up! I made this and it went well, I want to tell you my experience!
1. when making the batter, i'd say to only use 2 cups of flour (not 3), and add 2 cups of water (not 1.5)
2. if you wanna use black pepper instead of white, it went well for me.
3. when heating up the pot of oil, if you don't have a cooking thermometer, i'd say to put it at about medium-low heat. I initially made mine way too hot, and it does not need to be too hot at all. seriously. if you have numbers on your stove dial, i'd put it at "4" (if you want to check, at first, just put 1 nugget in the pot and leave it for 6 minutes, and see how it turns out. Then go from there.)
4. when making the sauce, keep in mind that you will not be putting all of the chicken in there. the sauce in the video will only be enough for about a quarter of the chicken you cooked.
5. I was only cooking for myself, and have been left with a bunch of leftover fried chicken. I am simply going to store it away for later, and just cook up some sauce whenever I want to have this dish again!
Rohann Asfaw yes I did the same recipe for the batter and it came out way to thick. I had to add extra water and Lil more oil
Thanks this helped I thought I was doing something wrong with the batter
Hey! I was wondering what kind of vinegar fits the sauce as the taste of vinegar can vary a lot.
Toddy hey toddy i just used classic white vinegar from kroger, it tasted pretty good. also one thing, before adding all of the corn starch/water mixture, see how your sauce develops. you don’t want it to be tooo thick
@@Oreios Rice Vinegar...or White Vinegar
Anybody else watching this knowing full well they don't have the ingredients for this and even if they did, they cannot be arsed to do it?
Stop talking about me!
@@Captain_Kebap 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nope my Walmart cart is full and ready to go! All I need is 40 dollars 👀
@@foreverloving5565 well once you've made it send me some thanks bye
😆
Made this last night and it was incredible! Texture was just perfect. Thank you!
I just cooked it for my family and I used 1 cup cornstarch, 1 cup flour and way more water for the batter to get the consistancy shown on screen!
WARNING FOR THOSE MAKING THIS RECIPE: The video says 1 & 1/2 cups of water, but the real recipe is supposed to be 2 & 1/2 CUPS OF WATER. Says on the website that it is 2 & 1/2
FML, I have done this twice now, the first time I had to add water of unknown amount, the second time same, thank you mr steel! for the correct measurements! Third time's a charm. :)
Omg i love u, im lucky to check the comments before making, thanks dude
That's true I found out the hard way myself I ended up doing two cups of water and not one and a half like he said and I added the green chives he never mentioned those and I added orange Zang cuz I know that's a secret
Whats orange zang?
but the website says 1 n a half still
guess whos cooking orange chicken at 2:30 in the morning.
DoodleDoop hey can I ask you. I never had orange chicken and I wanna make it does it reallly taste good? and does it have orange taste?
Rose Pall Yes, well there is a hint of orange, but mostly the flavor to sweet and sour, plus the name is suppose to be for the color of the coating on the chicken.
thierry dao
Did you make this recipe? I wanna know if it actually tastes like Panda Express.
Bri Yes, I have made this. The recipe is very good, it taste exactly how it is in Panda Express, and its a little crunchier.
How was it??
Because of Covid 19 I’ve lost my job. I used to flight at least 1 time per month and it’s been all ready 6 months since i haven’t been in USA. This is one of the things I miss. When I saw this recipe I couldn’t resist to prepare it. I’ve done it and it’s delicious. Thanks for sharing!!!!
I've tried other recipes but this one is the most flavorful crunchy and easiest to make!! Thanks for sharing!! Thia will be apart of our at home menu!
It bothers me that he did not put all the chicken in the pan
I believe that what is left in the plate before adding ut to the sauce if the bits of batter not the chicken.
it's because there's not enough sauce to coat all that chicken. i had to double (maybe triple next time) the sauce recipe cuz there isn't near enough for 2 lbs. of chicken
Yup
He wanted to keep it for himself so he can make it the real way. No chef gives their original recipe.
it wasn’t chicken the sauce was fried on accident
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU MAKE THIS!
I made this last week and it turned out fantastic however, there is a critical error in the directions. If you make this recipe with 3 cups of flour, 1 cup of corn starch and only add 1.5 cups of water, you will end up with a big ball of dough and nothing resembling pancake batter. I think they meant to say 2.5 cups of water. After adding the additional cup of water and enlisting a beater to help me get the lumps out, I was back in batter territory.
Keeping all that in mind, It will probably be a good idea to cut the batter recipe in half (adjust for the additional water if you do). With the recipe as they have described, you not only end up with way too much batter that will get dumped, you will spend extra time fishing through it trying to find all your chicken bits. Your tongs will get coated in batter and will probably make a bigger mess than necessary. Half way through the process, I ended up fishing all my chicken out and transferring them to a smaller bowl. Plenty of batter came with to the smaller and more manageable bowl and I ended up dumping the rest.
Finally, the sauce. Its not enough for the whole batch of chicken. Fortunately for me, my wife wanted some of the chicken without the sauce so I was saved. If you want enough sauce for the whole batch, you might want to make double the recipe, then, remove half the sauce from your frying pan and coat the chicken in batches. Probably two batches if you have a big frying pan. I don't think you can coat all the chicken at once (perhaps I'll try a wok next time).
Also on the sauce, mine thickened up fast once I added the corn starch...just.a little too think. Next time, I am going to be a little more deliberate in adding the starch to the sauce and might not add all of it.
Hope this helps! Family loved this and can't wait for me to make it again.
Thank you is much, ill definitely use this if I ever make the dish!! :)
Thx so much for this comment I’m making it rn
I tried this recipe too and I agree with EVERYTHING! thankfully I saw someone comment about the lack of water in the batter and fixed it. haha
I had the same problem with the water content, nice to know I wasn’t wrong the first time.
Thanks, i try it and its a lot better that way.
Excelente receta. Gracias.
The recipe is excellent. It is a staple in my house. A couple of small changes that I personally made: water in batter according to feel,used lemon juice instead of vinegar, more orange juice at the end to dilute the batter - approximately 1 cup total. Simply delicious. Thanks!
I feel like I'm going to come out of this quarantine never buying fast food again since I'm learning how to make all the dishes I love.
It's a little healthier too :)
@@Ava-su9pi why?

TL R : Depends on how many times you make it, or use the other ingredients.
But I get what you mean. I have serveral times tried to make new dishes where I needed to buy bottle of some exspensive ingredient and only use 1 tablespoon. Then it was in the closet for many years.
@@tlr8879 I got all the ingredients at home except chick, orange juice, and fresh ginger. So it would be cheap for me. hehe.
Dessica Hodges let me know how it turns out. Cool?

PANDA EXPRESS WHOO!PANDA EXPRESS WHOO!PANDA EXPRESS WHOO!PANDA EXPRESS WHOO!
I made this recipe and the batter for the chicken is actually 2 1/2 cups of water, NOT 1 1/2 .
@@248lol how are you supposed to measure water?
@@248lol well im not sure if you have used google before but the very first result is this link: www.seriouseats.com/2015/03/how-to-measure-wet-dry-ingredients-for-baking-accurately-best-method.html.
When you type in "best way to measure water" and i qoute "Gallons, quarts, pints, cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and fluid ounces are the most common units of volume you'll find." So cups are better for measuring water, other liquids,even dry ingredients. If you convert 1cup to milliliters it's 236.588, Which is not a number for milliliter measuring on cylinders or tools. If your using a measuring cup for milliliters then why not use a cup? Its easier and the better way to get the exact amount not a decimal number which you have to guess on a millimeter measuring tool.
@@248lol thats right go in hushmode.
@@248lol Thanks for trying to be smart. You're on UA-cam because of Americans, you idiot.
Wingardium Leviosa this is America. We don’t use the same measuring system as you guys lmao
I made this and heard the angels whisper to me, "My child, you should try this sauce for chicken wings." And then I went to heaven and came back.
lol
😂😂
Short and precise. ❤️ Easy to follow. Thanks!
I just made this, and it was amazing!! i am not a stick to the recipe type of cook, but I did with this and it turned out amazing!!
TIP: swap water with cold club soda/sparkling water for more crunch!
I wish I never watched this. Now I’m craving orange chicken . 🤤🤤
Trippin' Balls: lol I can’t speak English
Alayne McGaw could've fooled me. U speak fine. It's just humor.😉 your doing great.
Alayne McGaw me too and im pregnant haha i want to make this today
Alayne McGaw - I’m craving that sexy ass........and chicken, always chicken
Alayne McGaw I just made it
I made this tonight and it is very tasty, not quite like our local panda express but really good and I will make this often! I did cut the flour and corn stretch in half, I used 3 pounds of chicken thighs, and I tripled the orange sauce and there was just enough of everything!
Modified recipe! (Thanks to y’all in the comments. Basically I just halved the batter, used less of the flour and more water, removed the sesame oil, and doubled the sauce)
Chicken:
2 lb chicken (thighs)
1/2 tbsp salt
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 cup flour
1/2 egg
1 cup water
1 tbsp oil
Sauce:
2 tsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp chili flakes
1 tsp ginger
2 tbsp garlic
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup vinegar
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp water+2 tbsp cornstarch mixed together (you may not need all of it, I’d say try and add it in slowly)
To make it:
Cut the chicken into 1 inch cubes. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk the salt, white pepper, cornstarch, and flour together. Add the egg and the water. Whisk well to combine. Mix in the oil.
Mix the chicken with the batter, and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Heat a pan with oil to 350F. Use tongs to gently place the chicken into the oil. Fry in batches, and make sure you fry the chicken for at least 6 minutes, or until golden brown.
Add oil, chilli flakes, ginger, garlic, both sugars in a pan. Turn the heat on (medium-low ish) and stir it. Add in the orange juice, let it boil a bit. Add the vinegar and soy sauce, and when it’s boiling add in the water-cornstarch slurry slowly, while stirring. You may not need all of the slurry. Keep on stirring it until the sauce thickens, and add in the chicken. Stir, until the chicken is coated.
Serve while hot.
Couple tips:
When frying in batches, keep the chicken that's been fried in a warm oven, so it doesn't get cold while you are frying the rest. Maybe ~150F. I wish I did this.
Unless you like your chicken super sweet, tone down the sugar suggested for the glaze.
assuming you've made this before, is chilling the chicken is in the fridge or not???
@@cristinaramos6228 You don't have to as long as the chicken isn't out too long. Chilling the chicken is for safety reasons. You can leave the chicken at room temperature for up to 30 minutes before cooking it. Having room temperature chicken also helps ensure a crisper, more evenly cooked chicken as well as it doesn't lower the oil temperature as much. I would recommend having all your orange chicken ingredients ready to go before frying. Once it comes out, start the orange sauce immediately. Your chicken should still be warm and ready to go once the sauce is ready. You can also do what Philip said with the oven so that your chicken stays warm but not overcooked.
@@saysoun752thank you sooo much!
@@saysoun752 Wait doesn't 'chill' mean putting it in the fridge or something ?
@@MIARofficial Yes it does but most of the time, it's for safety reasons as the chicken will go bad in about 30 minutes. Who knows how long the chicken has been sitting out before he placed it in the batter. Also, like I stated, fried chicken or fried anything, in general, it's best to be done at room temperature as the oil will remain hotter and therefore you'll have a crispier chicken. The chicken will also cook more evenly, especially in bigger pieces. It might not matter as much here, as these are more like chicken nuggets, but it matters a lot when cooking drumsticks, thighs, wings and breast pieces.
I'm too lazy at the moment, so I'm gonna go hit up Panda Express. Brb.
Saaaame fam. I'm already ordering my orange chicken/brocolli beef, chicken egg roll plate right now!
This is why they're not worried about the comments saying they're "giving away the secret recipe" 😂
That was the whole point skip
🤢
To Ya Boi Rob: People are misusing the word Lazy: They are sensible, efficient and thrifty. To spend abundant money on an experiment, which may not work, is daunting. Reinventing the wheel is diligently daft, when you can take a ready-made wheel to transport you elsewhere -- *where you really want to go.*
That looks absolutely amazing, incredible and appetizing.Thanks for sharing this yummy and
That was so well taught, excellent
This recipe is so good. Just made it for my parents they loved it they never imagined a fifteen year old could cook this type of meal 😂😁
👍🏾
Thanks to u tube and your willingness to learn 👍👍👍👍
That's awesome.
You did your thang!!! Good on you young lady, I am sure it came out great!!!

Never would've expected this would be porn during the 2020 quarantine.
Jargon lmfao
Ah a man of culture I see
Well it's also meat sooooooo......
i dont like how you called it 'the 2020 quarantine', that implies there will be another one of these in the future😭😭
I'm not gonna lie, I did have to punch my dick down after watching this.
Perfect! I plan to apply to Panda soon and was gonna try a recipe first, so to find a recipe on how to make Panda’s orange chicken is not what I expected to find but excellent!
With minor changes, this has been the best thing ive tasted omg!!!!!! my whole family loved it and finished it within minutes
This recipe is amazing! Some suggestions for people just watching this and wanting to make:
1. With 2 lbs of chicken the dough quantity shown is way to much. In the dough keep everything the same except only use 1.5 cups of flour and 0.5 cups of starch. If dough is too hard add some more water until you get that pancake consistency.
2. If you don't have an oil thermometer, just fill the pan with oil and put the temperature high (but not all the way) and wait like 7 mins. Once you start cooking lower the temp to medium and you're golden.
3. DOUBLE EVERYTHING for the orange sauce. Just literally take all the numbers for the orange sauce and double them. It will make the perfect amount of sauce for 2 lbs of chicken. (could go a little easier on the vinegar also).
This will feed 5 very hungry people. Enjoy :)
What is the vinegar?
I always put extra vinegar 😋
That’s a lot of sugar... it wasn’t too sweet?
@@MrsTeacherHighSchool For orange chicken it is pretty sweet but that's the taste that you want to go for with it.
yea theyre probs just used to making large batches at a time so going heavy on flour/starch isnt that big of a deal to them
Watching this during quarantine doesn’t make sense... am hungry and its late at night
To make it worse I'm watching this while fasting

I think it's an American thing? I live in Canada and I've never seen one
@Krystal H Around where in Canada are you located, then? Because I'm from B.C., and the closest one is in the States at Bellingham. Though I suppose it makes sense, because we have a strong Chinese population so there's no need for one when we already have really good authentic Chinese food...

I’m 99% sure I’ve seen a cook at Panda Express dump a large bag of breaded chicken into the wok before pouring sauce on it.
Kayla Brubaker lol, yeah exactly.
Hell no is not fresh at panda. I always have the after taste of the freezer
A huge part of the philosophy of panda express is delivering the same quality consistently. That and the fact that it would take a lot longer than the 8-11 minutes it takes to cook a #2 or #3 orange chicken if we breaded the meat in stores and cooked it in small batches.
With that said, all of our meats come from panda express exclusive suppliers, and the orange chicken, Beijing beef, and sweetfire chicken breast is already breaded from them. It's not fresh, but neither is the meat we use for our stir fry dishes. The diced dark meat and white meat chicken as well as the strip steak, steak bites, and shrimp are all deep frozen and thawed as needed a couple days in advance to keep in our prep coolers.
Well, yeah. It's fast food. This is just the original recipe.
Rick Sanchez RT Rick Sanchez. Lol
I substituted the deep fried chicken with big popcorn chicken, it works. For anyone short on time I suggest this.

You have no idea how happy this makes me
Me and my bff have been apart for 4 years now due to my father beige in the army. When I made it to my new house, she called me and now it's an everyday thing to FaceTime eachother once a day. One time when we were talking, we both were amazed to figure out both our favorite food was orange chicken and rice (with tater tots). It became a little joke between to say 'when we're together again, the first food we'll have together will be orange chicken and rice! (With tater tots of course).' Today my dad announced he got hired back in her area and that we're moving back. I can't wait to surprise her with this the day I see her again (hopefully soon ;D).

Anytime I eat Panda Express, I always get a small portion of orange chicken. Absolutely delicious. Thanks for the recipe
I made this tonight and it was delicious!! I’ve tried other orange chicken recipes and never turned out good but this one was great!! I did have to add more water than what he said to because it turned out more like a dough instead of a batter but overall was really good 5 stars!
Taylor DeWitt yeah that was the only thing wrong with the recipe everything else turned out good. And being I had to add so much extra water I had to add just a little more white pepper and salt.

In 2012 I went to USA to work on a cruise ship, that's the first and the last time i work on cruise ship. when I arrived in tom bradley international airport i was so hungry but don't have enough money to buy any food. And came one of my senior associate and he said "I know you're hungry",he brought a box of food from panda express and asked me to join him having it since the portion was to big for him to ate it all alone. Inside the box there were rice, 2 dumplings and orange chicken. Thats the first and the last time i ate orange chicken. Thanks for giving the recipe, since i coudn't go to USA for the second time.

I remember when Panda Express didn't serve 5 day old food and it was actually edible...I miss those days.
Ya the last couple times I went the chow main was a bit disappointing, and everything was oily af
@@chrisrichfield8906 as a kid/teen it was amazing, but yeah I've had the exact same thing the last three or four times...plus I legitimately got stuck for 45 minutes in the drive thru (curb kept people from just leaving)
lol yeah i only eat panda express when im at my college because i know itll be fresh
I used to work at panda Express and we throw the food away every night even if there's a lot leftover... Also some employees don't care about the quality of the food and just keep it there to dry out when we're supposed to change the entrees and keep them fresh... I guess it depends on what location you go to.
I worked as a cook at Panda for four years. As much as it can be a pain, the best time to go is during peak lunch or dinnertime hours. Each of entrees and sides will be made fresh several times back to back during those rushes and you are guaranteed to get it fresh. Don't go later in the evening or in the between hours of lunch and dinner, I'm telling you. With regards to overall quality, each location may slightly differ in this, but the expectations and standards of the restaurant are still the same at each location. It's whether or not those standards are actually adhered to that makes all the difference.
I tried this and turned out amazing,😍... made half the coating batter for 2 pound chicken and it worked just as fine.
Must try. Very delicious
The fact that i just got my braces on and im binge watching tasty videos.
I made this recipe for my family and it turned out great! The only issue is that is the batter was extremely thick so I might lessen the amount of corn starch (just a wee bit) doubled the sauce, too. The amount in the recipe was not going to cover 2 lbs of that chicken. My picky eaters loved it!! edit: I need to add more water per advice of others on here. It tasted great!!
I literally used this batter for everything is so good, kids love it just plain as nuggets without the orange sauce👍
Thank you. A really awesome recipe!!
Looks like easy to make and delicious 🤤
This was delicious! I don’t know if anyone else had a problem with this but when making the sauce I first had it on medium high like the recipe said but it very quickly burnt so I re-did it, over slightly under medium and that worked a lot better. Also I only had 1.25lbs of chicken and I still had some chicken leftover so either 1lb of chicken or more sauce next time! A couple of other comments mentioned this but it should be 2 1/2 cups of water not 1 1/2 for the batter, otherwise your going to have a dough. The frying took about 15 minutes to cook instead of 6-7, it’s possible I didn’t have it high enough but it was already slightly splattering so I didn’t want to turn it up. Lots of notes, but A couple of tweaks and next batch should be a bit easier! Still amazing though, highly recommend!
