National Orange Chicken Day is celebrated on July 15 each year, and whatever its original claim to fame, we’re so glad it came to Chinese restaurants all over North America to delight our palates with another delectable dish from the Orient. Interestingly enough, the orange chicken, which many Americans know and love, is not strictly authentic to any original Chinese dish, though the flavor profile is inspired by the Hunan Province of China. Some of the most beloved versions can essentially be described as chicken nuggets tossed in a delightfully tangy, zesty, sticky sauce which contains most Asian food staples like vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.
