Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
8 ounces snow peas, sliced
3 medium carrots, about 8 ounces, peeled and julienned, or 2 1/2 cups storebought shredded carrots
Cooking spray
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
4 cups (3 1/2 ounces) crispy rice cereal
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 egg whites
1 tablespoon low-sodium teriyaki sauce
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into tenders 4 by 1 1/2-inches, about 18 pieces
1/2 cup low-sugar orange marmalade
1 tablespoon low-sodium teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make the salad: In a large bowl whisk the vinegar and honey until combined and then whisk in the sesame oil. Add the snow peas and carrots and toss well to coat. Set aside for the flavors to blend while the chicken and sauce cook.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet and lightly mist with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Put the sesame seeds in a small nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Put the cereal in a plastic storage bag and crush with a rolling pin or heavy can until coarsely crushed. In a shallow bowl combine the toasted sesame seeds, crushed cereal and orange zest and lightly season with salt and pepper.
  • In a second shallow dish, beat the egg whites with the teriyaki sauce. Dip each chicken tender in the egg mixture and then the cereal mixture, pressing to coat well. Place on the rack and mist the chicken with nonstick cooking spray. Bake until the crust is golden and the chicken is cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepot heat the marmalade, teriyaki and ginger over medium heat until melted and well combined. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Serve the chicken with some of the sauce for dipping and the salad.

EASY NO-BAKE ORANGE BALLS CANDY



Easy No-Bake Orange Balls Candy image

No-bake orange balls are similar to bourbon balls with vanilla wafer crumbs. The orange juice concentrate gives them a burst of orange flavor.

Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Dessert

Time 8h10m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces vanilla wafer cookies (finely crushed)
1 cup confectioners' sugar (plus more for coating)
1/4 cup butter (softened)
1/2 cup orange juice concentrate (thawed)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecans (chopped)
1/2 sifted confectioners' sugar (or shredded coconut for coating)

Steps:

  • Combine the vanilla wafer cookie crumbs and 1 cup confectioners' sugar in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the butter to the crumb mixture and blend in well.
  • Stir in the thawed orange juice concentrate; add vanilla and nuts. Mix with your hands until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • With your hands, shape the mixture into balls about the size of walnuts. Place the prepared balls in a food storage bag with the sifted confectioners' sugar or shredded coconut. Shake the balls around so that the sugar (or coconut) sticks to the balls. You may want to do just a few at a time to prevent overcrowding which could impact the shape of the balls.
  • Remove the balls from the bag and arrange the orange balls in single layer on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Store them uncovered overnight in the refrigerator for the best flavor. If you like making easy or no-bake desserts, try chocolate bourbon truffles or big batch no-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies .
