I love chines food but find it difficult to make at home. I don’t usually have the ingredients for it at home and staying on a budget with groceries doesn’t always allow for extra items I wouldn’t use otherwise.
That’s why I LOVE this recipe so much. It just has a few simple ingredients that you can find at your regular grocery store and it’s all made in the slow cooker.
If you love making this recipe in the slow cooker then you can try the stove top recipe also, 3 ingredient orange chicken.
