Okay so yes, this was pretty much just an excuse to make orange chicken. BUT: little did Rick & Morty writers know that their (frankly scathing) joke at Panda Express’ expense would set in motion a chain of events leading to my discovery of just how sugar can be a carrier of orange flavor. Or did they? I mean they wrote Rick & Morty, I’m clearly out of my depth.

  • MORTY! Wake up Morty, I did it, I reinvented- I reconfigured the-the-the PANDA (burrrrp) EXPRESS sugar, sugar-style chicken! The key was the sauce Morty, th-th-th-those panda f*cks were f*cking with one paw tied behind their back! C’mon Morty we’ve gotta, we’ve gotta deliver the recipe to the, warrior princess Shi’lah of the (burp) Shlorgerian peace, accords! No f*ck that Morty no time for chicken, only sauce Morty! You’re granddad’s little saucy buddy Morty!

    There's a Spongebob episode titled "Pizza Delivery", where Mr. Krabs turns Krabby Patties into a pizza. Could you make a Krabby Patty Pizza?

    luckily, orange chicken is a very popular prison cafeteria dish, so i’m sure justin roiland won’t miss that sweet sweet taste when he’s locked up.
  • @Jtankiller
    Fun fact, Panda Express doesn't use actual orange juice, they use orange extract in their orange chicken sauce.

    Panda Express: "Here's how you make our recipe!" Babish: "No."
  • @justinerwin3587
    Me, who knows nothing about making Chinese food: "Yeah, this second recipe is more like orange chicken."

    everyone: whats tiny whisk doing? Babish: his best
  • @dylanlake7454
    I would like to think majority of the fast-food/restaurants that release a recipe to the public, certain parts are omitted or ingredients are shifted so it never taste like it is suppose to so you still have to go to them to get the proper flavor

    I love that he's a man of science and not afraid of MSG.

  • Babish has managed to keep me entertained thru the entire pandemic

    The aggressive point at the end with the chopsticks in hand got me, definitely showed the excitement in the success of the dish, love the content Babish.

    I’ve made the improved version a couple of times and it keeps getting better. Tried it with beef bullion instead of MSG as well as the real thing and both times it was amazing. I also topped up the sacrum with blood orange Cointreau one time as I didn’t get enough sacrum which also gave it a solid orange hit. Best thing about the breading and frying method is I’ve used it for other meals too such as a honey chicken recipe and even for friend pork bites. Gets a great crispy coating :)

    Panda Express: gives Babish their recipe Babish: “I’m about to do what’s called a pro gamer move”

    I made this last week and it came out so perfect! I live in the UK and have always wanted to try Panda Express orange chicken but we don't have it here. I made it again tonight and I have no idea what I did wrong but it didn't taste like it did last week! Think I'll need to try it again another time and work out what I did wrong!
