Mandarin Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:

rice (hot); cooked
1/2 c olives (ripe); pitted
11 ozs of mandarin oranges; drained
3 Tbsps of cornstarch
1/2 c of water
2 Tbsps of pepper (green); chopped
1 tsp of powdered garlic
1 tsp of ginger; ground
1 tsp of pepper
2 tsps of salt
2 tsps of mustard; ground
1/4 c of orange concentrate (frozen)
1/4 c of low salt soya sauce
2 c of water
1/4 c of sugar (brown)
1 c of ketchup
1 chicken about 3 lbs; skinned and sliced

Instructions:

Mix together water, sugar, ketchup, orange concentrate, soy sauce, mustard, pepper, salt, powdered garlic and ginger. Mix well and use half of the marinade to marinate chicken. Keep the remaining premixed marinade. Keep chicken refrigerated overnight or for a minimum of 8hrs.

Once ready to cook, remove the chicken from the marinade. Cook the chicken at low heat. Pour in the marinade that was set aside previously. The cooking should last around 7-8 hrs.

Mix the cornstarch & water. Be sure that consistency is smooth. Pour over the cooking chicken mix while making sure to stir constantly. Add the olives, green pepper and the oranges.

Turn up the heat about half an hour prior to serving. Check that the sauce is sticky and thick. Serve with rice or as topping on rice.
