With a knife, cut off peel and outer membrane from oranges. Working over the small bowl with orange peel to catch juices, cut along the membrane of each segment to remove fruit; set sectioned oranges aside. Stir cornstarch, broth, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, jalapeno and pepper flakes into orange juice and peel., Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• To Marinate: Combine soy sauce, orange juice, sugar, garlic, ginger and raisins in a nonporous glass dish or bowl. Mix well, then add chicken and turn to coat. Cover dish or bowl and refrigerate to marinate for 2 to 3 hours, turning once or twice.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour marinade evenly over all.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, basting often.

Steps:

• Cut veggies into chunks and minces garlic. Set aside for later.
• Combine all the sauce ingredients into a bowl and whisk together. Set aside. (I recommend doing this ahead of time so the flavors can get happy together).
• Dice chicken into manageable chunks; about 1/4-1/2 inch pieces.
• Beat the egg and add cayenne pepper. Combine chicken into the egg mixture. Combine flour and corn starch in a ziplock bag, add the chicken pieces from the egg mixture into the bag. Close and shake. Shake off excess flour for the cooking process.
• Begin cooking chicken in a wok with about 2 inches of peanut oil in it. The oil should be 375-400 degrees. Work in small batches. Don't overload the wok.
• Once all the chicken is cooked, reserve only about 3 tablespoons of the oil in the bottom of the wok. Crank the heat up high and add your chicken back into the wok. Cook until all the pieces get a nice golden brown. You can add your veggies during this process.
• Once your veggies are cooked the way you like them add the sauce mixture and stir constantly. Saute for 3 minutes or so, allowing the sauce to thicken.

Steps:

• Place cornstarch in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in orange juice until smooth. Whisk in soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic, and red-pepper flakes; season with salt. Set mixture aside.
• In a 5-quart nonstick Dutch oven or pot, heat oil over medium-high. Working in batches, cook chicken on one side until slightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes; transfer to a plate, and set aside (chicken will cook more later).
• Add broccoli, carrots, and 1/2 cup water to pot. Cook, partially covered, until water has evaporated and broccoli is bright green, 3 minutes. Add reserved chicken and cornstarch mixture; bring to a boil. Cook until chicken is opaque throughout and sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve stir-fry over rice.

Steps:

• Mix the soy sauce, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and chili pepper.
• Grind sugar in a coffee grinder for 15 seconds to reduce the granules. Alternately, use caster sugar. The sugar needs to be fine to dissolve properly in the marinade. Add to mixture.
• Zest the peel of 1 orange into the mixture. Squeeze the juice from 3 oranges into the mixture and blend thoroughly. Retain orange peels for later if you want to add zest to the end product.
• Add mixture to a zip lock bag or sealed container, and add chopped chicken breast. Allow to marinade, refrigerated, at least 2 hours.
• Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rice and a pinch of salt and return to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until water is absorbed (about 16 minutes). Rice should have steam holes when it's ready.
• Using a colander, strain the marinade juices into a pan to separate them from the chicken. Heat on low heat to reduce, stirring as it starts to bubble up.
• Heat the oil in a wok or large pan.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, taking care to not wipe off garlic and ginger bits. Mix the cornflour with the salt and pepper. Toss the chicken in the mixture until completely coated.
• When the oil is hot, reduce heat to medium and cook the chicken in batches, about 5 minutes on each side. If you have a meat thermometer, the chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
• Remove each batch of chicken with a slotted spoon, and place in a bowl lined with a paper towel to soak up excess fat.
• When all the chicken is cooked, add the bell pepper, snap peas, and green onion to the hot pan. Saute until the peppers soften up a bit (about 5 minutes), then add marinade juices. Add the chicken back in and stir until blended. Heat until it reaches the desired consistency.
• Serve up with white rice. Top with orange zest if desired.
