Panda Express Orange Flavored Chicken

Panda Express® Orange Flavored Chicken
As far as Chinese food goes, I think the stuff these guys throw together in sizzling woks is surprisingly tasty for a takeout chain. This dish is something of a twist on the traditional sweet and sour chicken commonly found at Chinese restaurants over the years. This popular menu item has a delicious, citrus-laced, tangy-sweet sauce with a spicy nip the regulars find truly addictive. The chain claims to cook all of its food in woks, including sauces. But this homegrown
version will work fine, whether you go for a wok, or not.

Sauce
1 1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup rice vinegar
2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon minced water chestnuts
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 rounded teaspoon chopped green onion
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
5 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons arrowroot
3 tablespoons water

Chicken
4 chicken breast fillets
1 cup ice water
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups unsifted cake flour

2 to 4 cups vegetable oil

1. Combine all of the sauce ingredients - except the cornstarch, arrowroot, and 3 tablespoons of water - in a small saucepan over high heat. Stir often while bringing mixture to a boil. When sauce reaches a boil, remove it from heat and allow it to cool a bit, uncovered.
2. Slice chicken breasts into bite-size chunks. Remove exactly 1 cup of the marinade from the pan and pour it over the chicken in a large resealable plastic bag or other container which allows the chicken to be completely covered with the marinade. The chicken should marinate for at least a couple hours. Cover the remaining sauce and leave it to cool until the chicken is ready.
3. When chicken has marinated, preheat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a wok or skillet to 350 degrees.
4. Combine cornstarch with arrowroot in a small bowl, then add 3 tablespoons of water. Stir until cornstarch and arrowroot have dissolved. Pour this mixture into the sauce and set the pan over
high heat. When sauce begins to bubble and thicken, cover and remove it from heat.
5. Beat together the ice water and egg in a medium bowl. Add baking soda and salt.
6. Add 3/4 cup of the flour and stir with a fork just until the flour in blended into the mixture. The batter should still be lumpy.
7. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup of flour on top of the batter and mix with only one or two strokes. Most of the new flour will still floating on top of the mixture. Put the remaining flour (1/2 cup)
into a separate medium bowl.
8. Dip each piece of chicken first into the flour, then into the batter. Let some of the batter drip off and then slide the chicken into the oil. Fry up to 1/2 of the chicken pieces at a time for 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip the chicken over halfway through the cooking time. Remove the chicken to a rack or paper towels to drain.
9. As the chicken cooks, reheat the sauce left covered on the stove. Stir occasionally.
10. When all of the chicken is done, pour it into a large bowl, and cover with the thickened sauce. Stir gently until all of the pieces are well coated.
Serves four.

KFC Tender Roast

KFC Tender Roast
The Colonel also had a Roasted chicken that was mighty tasty. The chicken was
marinated also and then baked with his famous seasonings. The baking process was long it takes 4 hours to bake it. It is baked at 225 for 2 hours till the internal temp was at 175. But for you at home I have updated this to be baked at a hire temperature and be prepared in less time.

Tender Roast

Spice Mix
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon MSG

Trim the excess fat from the chicken. Marinade the chicken in the mixture for 3 to 4 hrs or overnight. Remove the chicken from the marinade and allow to dry. Sprinkle the
chicken lightly with seasoning. Place on baking pan and bake at 325F for 1 to 1 1/2 hrs till chicken is done. Allow to sit for 1 to 2 minutes then serve

KFC Wings

KFC Wings
The Colonel has decided to make Hot and Spicy Strips that ran for short times the
difference is the second dip it is dipped into hot sauce then breaded again and then
fried just like the original crispy strips. For the barbecue strips make
the strips the original way and then dip into the Honey Barbecue Dipping Sauce.
The Colonel deiced that wings were going to be a good thing
to serve and so he decided to create fried wings that are very tasty. The Honey
Barbecue wings are tasty . After they are made they are dipped into the Honey
Barbecue Dipping Sauce. If you don’t want the honey barbecue wings just serve them
as the regular wings.

6-8 cups shortening
20 chicken wing pieces
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG
1/8 teaspoon Paprika
1/8 teaspoon Garlic Powder

If you are using frozen wings allow them to defrost and marinate. If you are using fresh
wings you are going to want to take the wing and remove the flipper and then break
them into two pieces and then marinate them. Combine the beaten egg with the milk in
a small bowl. In another small bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder,
paprika and MSG. When shortening is hot, dip each wing first in the flour mixture, then
into the milk and egg mixture, and back into the flour. Bread all the wings then
refrigerate them until ready to use. When they are ready to be used fry them 6 at a time
for 12 minutes. Remove from the shortening and allow them to drain for 3 minutes. For
the barbecue ones dip in the barbecue sauce and serve.

KFC Crispy Strips

KFC Crispy Strips
The Colonel used to sale chicken nuggets that were tasty but
he taught why not prepare fresh chicken strips of all white
meat and that is how the Colonel’s Crispy Strips were
born. You will notice it is the same as the Extra Crispy.

1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG
1/8 teaspoon Paprika

Remove the chicken to a rack and allow to drain for 5 minutes

KFC Hot and Spicy Chicken

Hot and Spicy Chicken
Once he perfected his Extra Crispy he had customers who wanted it to be spicy and bold
so he created his Hot and Spicy Chicken. Here is his original recipe which has changed a
bit in this day and age. It comes frozen and is cooked frozen and not prepared fresh in
many stores.

to 350 degrees. Combine the beaten egg and milk in a medium bowl. In another
medium bowl, combine the remaining coating ingredients When the chicken has
marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess liquid can drain off.
Working with one piece at a time, dip in egg and milk then coat the chicken with the dry
flour mixture, coated very generously. Stack the chicken on a plate or cookie sheet until
each piece has been coated. Drop the chicken, one piece at a time into the hot
shortening.
Fry half of the chicken at a time (4 pieces) for 12-15 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
You should be sure to stir the chicken around halfway through the cooking time so that
each piece cooks evenly. Remove the chicken to a rack or towels to drain for about 5
minutes before eating.

KFC Extra Crispy

KFC EXTRA CRISPY
After he perfected his original he made a crispy recipe that

KFC Honey BBQ Wings

KFC® Honey BBQ Wings®
Once a regular menu item, these sweet, saucy wings are now
added to the KFC menu on a "limited-time-only" basis in many
markets. So how are we to get that sticky sauce all over our
faces and hands during those many months when we're cruelly
denied our Honey BBQ Wings? Now it's as easy as whipping up a
clone that re-creates a crispy breading on the chicken wings,
and then slathering those puppies in a tasty knock-off of the
sweet, tangy honey BBQ sauce. "Limited-time-only" signs -
we laugh in your direction!

Sauce
1 1/4 cup ketchup
1/3 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon chili powder

6 to 8 cups vegetable shortening
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG
20 chicken wing pieces

a deep fryer set to 350 degrees.
3. Combine the beaten egg with the milk in a small bowl.
4. In another small bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, and MSG.
5. When shorteningl is hot, dip each wing first in the flour mixture,
then into the milk and egg mixture, and back into the flour. Arrange
wings on a plate until each one is coated with batter.
6. Fry the wings in the shortening for 9 to 12 minutes or until light
golden brown. If you have a small fryer, you may wish to fry 10 of
the wings at a time. Drain on paper towels or a rack.
7. When the sauce is done, brush the entire surface of each wing with
a light coating of sauce. Serve immediately.
Makes 2 to 4 servings (20 wings).

Tidbits
Liquid smoke is a flavoring found near the barbecue sauces and
marinades. Use hickory-flavored liquid smoke if you have a choice.
MSG is monosodium glutamate, the solid form of a natural amino acid
found in many vegetables. It can be found in stores in the spice
sections and as the brand name Accent flavor enhancer. MSG is an
important component of many KFC items.

Hard Rock Cafe Tupelo Style Chicken

Hard Rock Cafe® Tupelo Style Chicken
The world's most famous theme restaurant pays tribute to the
birthplace of Elvis Presley with this chicken finger appetizer
dish, and two tasty dipping sauces. It's probably best they
chose to name the dish after a city, rather than after the King
himself. "Elvis Style Chicken" sounds like a concoction that
should include bananas, peanut butter and bacon grease.
4 to 6 cups vegetable oil

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons honey
pinch paprika

Apricot Dipping Sauce
2 tablespoons Grey Poupon Dijon mustard

1/4 teaspoon onion powder
dash garlic
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 pound chicken breast fillets

1. Preheat oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees.
2. Make the honey mustard dipping sauce by combining the
ingredients in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate. Make the
apricot dipping sauce by combing those ingredients in a medium
bowl. Cover and refrigerate this sauce as well, until your chicken
is ready.
3. Prepare the breading by combining the corn flake crumbs, crushed
red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, cumin, salt, paprika, onion
powder, and garlic in a medium bowl.
4. Beat the egg in a medium bowl, add the 1 cup of milk and stir.
5. Pour the flour into another medium bowl.
6. Slice each chicken breast lengthwise into strips approximately
1/2-inch wide.
7. When the oil is hot, bread your chicken by first coating each
strip with flour. Dip the chicken into the egg/milk mixture and
then back into the flour. Dip each chicken strip back in the egg/milk
mixture and then in the corn flake crumb mixture. Be sure to coat
each chicken piece thoroughly with the corn flake crumbs.
8. Fry 6 to 8 coated chicken strips at a time in the oil for 4 to 5
minutes or until the chicken is golden brown. Drain and serve

Chili's Boneless Buffalo Wings

Chili's® Boneless Buffalo Wings
This clone of Chili's new menu items gives us the
zesty flavor of traditional Buffalo chicken wings
without the bones or skin. That's because these "wings"
are actually nuggets sliced from chicken breast fillets
that are breaded and fried, then smothered with the same
type of spicy wing sauce used on typical wings. If you
like Buffalo wings, you'll love this recipe. Serve these
babies up with some celery sticks and bleu cheese dressing
on the side for dipping. Now you can actually eat Buffalo
wings with a fork!
-----------------------------------------------------------
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 egg
1 cup milk
2 chicken breast fillets
4-6 cups vegetable oil
1/4 cup Crystal or Frank's Louisiana hot sauce
1 tablespoon margarine
On the side
bleu cheese dressing (for dipping)
celery sticks
-----------------------------------------------------------
1. Combine flour, salt, peppers and paprika in a medium bowl.
2. In another small bowl, whisk together egg and milk.
3. Slice each chicken breast into 6 pieces. Preheat 4-6 cups
of vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees.
4. One or two at a time, dip each piece of chicken into the
egg mixture, then into the breading blend; then repeat the
process so that each piece of chicken is double-coated.
5. When all chicken pieces have been breaded, arrange them on
a plate and chill for 15 minutes.
6. When the chicken is done resting, drop each piece into the
hot oil and fry for 5-6 minutes or until each piece is browned.
7. As chicken fries, combine the hot sauce and margarine in a
small bowl. Microwave sauce for 20-30 seconds or just until the
margarine is melted, then stir to combine. You can also use a
small saucepan for this step. Just combine the hot sauce and
margarine in the saucepan over low heat and stir until margarine
is melted and ingredients are blended.
8. When chicken pieces are done frying, remove them to a plate
lined with a couple paper towels.
9. Place the chicken pieces into a covered container such as a
large jar with a lid. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the
container, cover, and then shake gently until each piece of chicken
is coated with sauce. Pour the chicken onto a plate and serve

Chevys Mesquite-Grilled BBQ Chicken Quesadilla

Chevys® Mesquite-Grilled BBQ Chicken Quesadilla®
With this secret recipe from the latest TSR low-lat book,
it isn't necessary to cook the chicken over a mesquite
grill as they do in the restaurant chain. Sure, you could
get some mesquite wood chips and throw 'em on your barbecue
or you can use that charcoal that has mesquite in it.
But an easier way to get the flavor of mesquite--especially
if all you've got is a gas grill--is to soak the chicken
in a marinade made with mesquite-flavored liquid smoke.
In the restaurant these puppies are made with red chili
tortillas. Since these type of tortillas can be a drag to
track down, especially in fat-free versions, we'll use plain
fat-free tortillas for our tasty reduced-fat clone.
------------------------------------------------------------
Mesquite Marinade
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon mesquite-flavored liquid smoke
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash ground black pepper
Spicy BBQ Sauce
1/2 cup Bull's-Eye Original BBQ Sauce
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
dash chili powder
1 boneless chicken breast
1/3 cup sliced red bell pepper
1/3 cup sliced green bell pepper
1/3 cup sliced Spanish onion
2 large (12-inch) fat-free flour tortillas
1 1/3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Prepare the marinade by combining the ingredients in a medium
bowl. Add chicken breast fillet to the bowl, cover, and chill for
one hour.
2. When the chicken is finished marinating, preheat your grill to
high temperature.
3. As grill is heating, prepare the spicy BBQ sauce by mixing the
ingredients in a small bowl.
4. Throw the chicken on the grill and cook it for 4 to 5 minutes
per side or until it's done. When the chicken is done cooking, chop it into bite-size
pieces.
5. Spray a light coating of nonstick cooking spray on a medium
skillet over medium heat. Sauté the sliced peppers and onion in
the pan for 4 to 5 minutes or until the veggies start to brown
6. Set a large skillet over medium/low heat.
7. Put one flour tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle 1/3 cup
of cheese over half of the tortilla. Spoon half of the vegetables
over the cheese, followed by half of the chicken.
8. Spoon a generous portion of the spicy BBQ sauce over the chicken,
followed by another 1/3 cup of cheese.
9. Fold the other side of the tortilla over the filling, and press
down so that it stays in place.
10. By this time, the cheese on the bottom should be melted. If not,
wait another minute or so, then flip the quesadilla over and heat
for another couple minutes or until all of the cheese has melted.
11. Slide the quesadilla onto a plate and slice it into 4 pieces.
Repeat for the second quesadilla and serve immediately with salsa
on the side.
Serves 4 as an appetizer.
