To prepare this meal, you will typically need to heat a skillet on the stovetop. Once the skillet is hot, you add the contents of the package. The chicken and sauce are then cooked together, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is heated through and the sauce has thickened to your liking. This process usually takes around ten to fifteen minutes, making it a very fast way to get a hot meal on the table. Ensure the chicken is fully cooked before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to making orange chicken from scratch, this skillet meal offers significant time savings. It pre-portions the ingredients and provides a ready-made sauce. The texture of the chicken may differ from freshly fried pieces, as it is designed to be reheated in a skillet.
