Orange chicken is one of my favorite take out Chinese menu picks

INGREDIENTS

8 small boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 T. flour
1/3 cup orange marmalade
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
2 T. soy sauce
1/2 t. ginger

METHOD

Toss chicken with flour in slow cooker. Stir in all remaining ingredients; cover with lid. Cook on LOW 6-8 hours or HIGH 3-4 hours.

Makes 4 servings.

DIRECTIONS
I tossed them with 3 tablespoons of flour in the slow cooker.Now for the sauce. I combined the orange marmalade, barbecue sauce, soy sauce, and ginger in a bowland poured it over the chicken.Now spread it evenly over the chicken. Set the slow cooker to LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 6-8 hours.This is where things went a little wrong. I’ve found that my slow cooker tends to cook fast, so I set it on the lowest setting for 10 hours. About 4 hours later, there was a burning smell, so I went to find the source. This is what I found:Not only was the chicken completely cooked, but the sauce was charred. Hmmm. Not sure what happened here. A friend suggested that my crock pot has a short. Maybe. Or it’s possessed and cooked my little Orange Chicken thighs with the fiery flames of Hell.Obviously, I unplugged this handy little appliance and removed my chicken to a plate, covered it up and put it into the fridge before dance class.So what we have here is re-heated Orange Chicken with brown rice and an Asian blend vegetable medley. And it was good. Luckily the chicken was spared by the demon in my crock pot.ink
