Ninja Speedi orange chicken and rice

we are keeping it simple today, friends, by air frying some chicken bites and adding Alid's orange sauce to them. I also learned not to overcook my rice! enjoy! #cookwithme #easydinner #ninja #orangchicken #orange #speedi #quickmeals #quickmealideas #chicken

When I cook rice in the ninja speedy, I use 2 cups of water for every cup of rice. And when you have it on the Steam and crisp, it also crisp up your rice. I would have removed the rice and then. Just cook the chicken by itself on the second batch.

I love the recipe. I subscribed to your channel. It took many attempts to cookmin the Ninja Speedi, but once I got to know the Speedi is my go-to. Getting that rice cooked well took several attempts. Love your presentation.

Awesome! Thank you!

Yes, I use Uncle Ben's white rice, and it takes 15 minutes, at the 10-minute mark I check on it to see if I need to add any more water. Most cases I need a splash more water. I do one part rice and two parts water.

i like the honesty in your presentation. thank you for sharing.

[@cynthiabeard1424]

I love the Speedi! I was shown that for every cup of water, you need to double the water. One cup rice, two cups of water.

[@chiquita71]

For 3 cups rice 6 cups water and 10 to 12 mins max for the rice

You jest need to do the rice less time, put the rice in after the first batch of chicken is done. In the ninja special meals it gives you the amount of water needed for weight of rice or pasta, and it’s a good guide to follow. With the pasta I put the water in as required on the special menu list, then add a pasta sauce, and it comes out lovely. If your left with too much liquid just pop you switch to sear and sauté and fry for a few minutes to get rid of it.

I use marmalade when I make orange chicken

[@Camflyer15]

Maybe 25% more water and a teaspoon full of paprika to give it the orange… love that cooker !!

[@timothybdavis7520]

Looks yummy!👍😋

[@thelightfordhouse]

Thank you!

If you keep open and close the lid while the rice is cooking,u will lose the steam which is essential for rice cooking,that will make the rice very dry and doesn’t taste good .:)

[@tealchief]

rice on those first two settings is 15 minutes max

[@Mickieshelton]

Lot of correctional advice in the comments..lol

[@geocarol2007]

Why not wait and put your rice in with the second batch of chicken that way it will hot and ready to eat all at the same time without being over cooked, it does look very good though, thank you. 😋

[@thelightfordhouse]

Good suggestion, thank you. I am still new to the speedi so I'll try that next time.

[@Reddylion]

Nice video.

[@thelightfordhouse]

Thanks for watching

[@bagera9142]

Chicken they looked over cooked

[@jerriarriola8864]

Yes… I was wondering if you were gonna add water & steam. It works every time. Of course, removing the rice after the first batch of chicken would have worked as well but great recipe & wonderful save on the rice. I am making this for us this week.
