This vibrant spicy orange chicken stir-fry is a fantastic high-protein meal that brings a burst of citrus flavour to your dinner table. By using fresh orange zest and juice, the sauce achieves a bright, zesty profile that perfectly balances the savoury soy sauce and the gentle heat from the dried chillies. It is a much lighter and more refreshing alternative to traditional takeaway options, relying on flash-frying rather than heavy batters.
Perfect for a quick midweek supper, this dish is packed with lean chicken and crunchy sugar snap peas to ensure a nutritious, well-rounded plate. Serve it over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice to soak up the glossy citrus glaze. It is an ideal recipe for those seeking a fast, homemade meal that does not compromise on protein or taste.

Ingredients for Spicy Orange Chicken Stir-Fry
275g jasmine rice or long-grain white rice (10 to 300g )
180ml orange juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornflour
2 teaspoons finely grated orange peel
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small red onion, halved, thinly sliced
Large pinch of dried crushed red pepper
675g chicken cutlets, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1 230g package stringless sugar snap peas
How to make Spicy Orange Chicken Stir-Fry
Cook rice according to package directions. Cover to keep warm; set aside.
Meanwhile, whisk juice, soy sauce, and cornflour in medium bowl until cornflour dissolves. Mix in orange peel.
Heat oil in large wok or nonstick skillet over high heat. Add onion and crushed red pepper. Stir-fry 30 seconds. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add to wok and stir-fry until onion is crisp-tender and chicken is just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add sugar snap peas and juice mixture. Toss until sauce thickens and comes to boil and peas are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with rice.
