Binging with Babish: Sugar Chicken from Rick & Morty

  • Okay so yes, this was pretty much just an excuse to make orange chicken. BUT: little did Rick & Morty writers know that their (frankly scathing) joke at Panda Express’ expense would set in motion a chain of events leading to my discovery of just how sugar can be a carrier of orange flavor. Or did they? I mean they wrote Rick & Morty, I’m clearly out of my depth.

    MORTY! Wake up Morty, I did it, I reinvented- I reconfigured the-the-the PANDA (burrrrp) EXPRESS sugar, sugar-style chicken! The key was the sauce Morty, th-th-th-those panda f*cks were f*cking with one paw tied behind their back! C’mon Morty we’ve gotta, we’ve gotta deliver the recipe to the, warrior princess Shi’lah of the (burp) Shlorgerian peace, accords! No f*ck that Morty no time for chicken, only sauce Morty! You’re granddad’s little saucy buddy Morty!

    former employee of panda here, and you pretty much figured out the real recipe 🤠 recipe for orange sauce has dark soy sauce, chinese cooking wine, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and then once in the wok, its garlic, ginger, chili flakes, orange sauce, and sesame oil. actual recipe has an UNGODLY amount of sugar though!! the orange chicken base sauce is literally 1/4 sugar-it’s literally like kool-aid ❌🧢

    I used to work in a Japanese restaurant and one of their tricks for a lighter tempura batter is to use less water and a little bit of ice.
    The ice helps mix the batter but doesn't allow for as much gluten formation. A quick small stir before dipping helps incorporate the remaining water in the batter.

    I’ve made the improved version a couple of times and it keeps getting better. Tried it with beef bullion instead of MSG as well as the real thing and both times it was amazing. I also topped up the sacrum with blood orange Cointreau one time as I didn’t get enough sacrum which also gave it a solid orange hit.
    Best thing about the breading and frying method is I’ve used it for other meals too such as a honey chicken recipe and even for friend pork bites. Gets a great crispy coating :)

    For those who are exactly as patient as me:
    If you don't have time to wait 12 hours for your orange siroup thingy:
    You can mix the orange peels and the sugar with some water and heat that up. You can switch from low to middle to max. heat a few times and then just let it be. Worked just fine.

  • @andrewkrahn2629

    note that if you want to make an oleo sacchrum, you want to have a lot less of the white pith on the peels. The more white is left, the more bitter the syrup will be. Also, using bar/superfine sugar (same amount by weight) will make this easier.

      I’ve personally made the tasty recipe and not bad. The measurements are just off. The amount of sauce is too little for the amount of chicken it calls for so if you attempt, keep that in mind. It also doesn’t call for MSG which I know for sure they use. Also, I had to adjust the sauce more to my taste (more orange, more soy sauce, more sesame oil). It’s not terrible, just needs some tweaks here and there. :)

    Ok I have to say, I really appreciate the emphasis on the value of the flavor added by MSG, which is a compound that, like sodium chloride, aka salt, is simply a spice that makes things taste nice. It was only cruel and rampant racism against Asian-Americans in the 40s and 50s that gave MSG the stigma that unfortunately it has been unable to shake. (That's why you still see on many Asian foods and ingredients in the supermarket, an MSG free stamp, to encourage biased consumers to still buy the products.)
