The secret to Trader Joe’s Mandarin Orange Chicken’s success is in its simplicity, really. Tender chunks of juicy chicken in a crispy breading with a sweet and spicy orange sauce… what’s not to love? And here’s our favorite way to prepare it: bake the chicken in a 400º oven; when the chicken is cooked through, add the sauce to a skillet or wok; once the sauce is hot, add the chicken and toss together until the sauce adheres to the chicken and caramelizes a bit. You can also microwave the sauce and toss it with the chicken, but we think the little bit of extra effort pays off handsomely. Serve with rice and veggies for a complete meal that doesn’t take much time to prepare, and delivers big flavors at a small price.
