Hi guys!! I've had a few questions on the sweetener. This is the one I used (amzn.to/3gSvggA) and 3/4 cup was perfect. If you're using monk fruit or erythritol or confectioners, half the sweetener first, taste it and add more to your liking 💗

Y’all don’t understand how much this dish changed my keto journey. I was a little nervous starting it, and even felt like I’d probably give up if I wasn’t driven enough to cook. But then I found this channel and MY GAWD this orange chicken is insanely good! I was shook when my partner and I first ate it. Myra is LEGIT, and her recipes are awesome 🤩
You should look into getting an air fryer. Once you start making Lemon Pepper, Old Bay Seasoning or Ranch Flavored chicken wings you'll never look back. And they come out so crispy. Same for chicken thighs.
My husband has to stay away from his favorite neighborhood Chinese takeout for health reasons. this made him happy. I made cauliflower fried rice as the side. Thank you so much!❤️
I have been living the keto, low carb lifestyle for a year and a half now and it is no stretch for me to say that this is, hands-down, the best keto recipe I have made. Better than any sweet and I have a wicked-huge sweet tooth. And food with an Asian flair is one of my favorites. Y'all, do yourselves a favor and make this dish. It is BOMB and legit. Wow, Myra, thank you, thank you, thank you! Definitely the REAL DEAL. A new culinary world has opened up in my kitchen using protein powder as a breading for our chicken. Goodness. Thank you again!
I made this but used superfine almond flour, swerve confectioners(3/4 of the recommended sugar) and made cauliflower fried rice on the side. This recipe is better than panda express, so dang good!!!
Made this tonight for my weekly meal prep. I used Coconut flour instead of protein powder since chicken, itself, is already a high protein meat. I also used Arrowroot instead of Xanthan Gum. It turned out REALLY good and the sauce thickened beautifully.
I just made this tonight. The only difference is that I used almond flour because I didn't have any protein powder on hand. The meal was delicious and my wife is raving about it. She's begging me to make it again. It was the best orange chicken I've had in a long time.
I am usually not commenting on any youtube videos but god, this is the best low carb recipe I ever tried and tasted, it tases exactly like the real thing!
I made this last night using monk fruit; I used only 1/2 cup. This was beyond delicious! My husband and I loved it! My side was steamed broccoli with lemon juice. YUMMMMY! WE WILL HAVE THIS AGAIN!!!!
I just made this last night and it was a HIT. The substitute for flouring the chicken with protein powder provided some of the crunchiest chicken I've had while doing keto. So glad I found this video! Also, for the sauce, instead of using granular sweetner, I used 1 tsp of liquid stevia and it was excellent.
Made it for my boyfriend and he loovveeddd it! He could not believe it was low carb ! Def a new favorite in our house! Thanks so much girl for another one of ur awesome recipes !!😋😋
Love your channel. I started watching when I found out I’m pre diabetic. My first dish was to try your fotatoe salad lol Lil lady you weren’t kidding it was the bomb. Now I’m gonna try this by the way I’ve been making the fotatoe salad and donating it to the church’s food court to raise funds for missions and I’ve been told it’s delicious it’s quite popular . Thanx.
Somebody better give you ur own cooking show - hands down everytime i make ur recipes... i die. *of goodness*. U nail ur recipes every single dang time. I alrdy told my husband we are having this orange chicken for dinner tomorrow and he’s acting like he just won the lottery. - yes, we miss regular chinese food. So thank you for ANOTHER great recipe! Will post it and tag it on ur IG tomorrow when its done! 🤤💪🏼
Thank you so much!! Honestly that makes me so happy because you know I always make sure the recipes are amazing before I ever share it 💞 can’t wait to see what your hubby thinks!!
Low Carb Love - had this for dinner tonight as planned! Phenomenal!! Husband loooooved it! My family loved it!! I tagged you on instagram with a pic of the finished product.. soooo yummy! Thank you!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Everyone in my house (daughter and her 2 sons 8&10) absolutely LOVE the Orange Chicken from Panda Express! Newly diagnosed with diabetes I thought I'd never be able to have it again. I can't wait to try this asap. I think I would like it on green beans or asparagus as well. just discovered your channel and so far I really love it!! ❤ 👍 😁
Beast To Beauty honestly I didn’t measure I just do equal parts so depending on how much chicken you have so for example half cup arrowroot and half cup almond flour. I first started off with 1/4cup of each then went from there as needed and make sure you mix them both together really well so it’s completely combined especially with your seasonings.
Mayra thank you SO MUCH! My husband recently found out he can't have gluten and he's been really depressed about not being able to eat a lot of his favorites, especially Chinese. This is LEGIT!! We'll be making it in batches along with the shrimp fried rice for freezer stash!!❤
I’ve been wanting to make this for awhile-finally ordered that unflavored protein and this WAS A HIT FOR THE HUBBY AND ME! Going to try the cashew chicken one next week! THANKS AGAIN FOR THIS RECIPE!!!
I love a really strong orange flavor so i cheat and add some sugar free orange marmalade.. great punch of orange and just 2 extra carbs for the entire dish 🤤🤤🧡
Made this for dinner tonight and OMG!! yes!!. So good!!! Made garlic green beans as a side. I was too excited to eat it so I nixed the cauliflower fried rice. Next time! Now I need a General Tsoa recipe!
Thank you so much for joining me today ☺️ This was the best orange chicken ever! Perfectly crispy and the sauce is perfection ❤️ What recipe do you want to see next?
In your video you mentioned some ideas for sides, or what to plate with chicken. My difficulty is bringing other foods to incorporate with main dish. Some interesting salad ideas, or side vegetables would be great recipes in addition to. I'm on the Berg (healthy keto) version so I try to eat a lot of veggies too. Thanks
I was just thinking yesterday after smelling orange chicken from panda “I need to find out how to make keto orange chicken” then this pops up on my feed. Yay!!!
If you live close to an Asian market, you can get dried bitter mandarin rind that is perfect. Arrowroot is good substitute for xanthum gum for thickening.
This was delicious! My family is already asking me to make it again...and I plan to ASAP! 😋 I did take up the suggestion of the others of combining the protein powder, eggs, and water to make a wet batter. That made the process faster. But you def earned yourself a new subscriber! Thank you! 🤗
Sooo glad I found this page!!!! I’m going to make this for meal prep and as a meal for my family!! Will be doubling the recipe so everyone can get enough!! Can’t wait
Tried this last night and everyone loved it! Best orange chicken I’ve ever had!!Used the vanilla protein powder I had on hand lol but still tasted great!
I absolutely love watching your recipes and suggestions. I appreciate all the work you put into making these wonderful videos for us. It's always a pleasure learning from your experience. Thank you.
Thank you for that recipe. I made this last night and it was delicious. I substituted and used almond flour, coconut aminos, and fried the chicken in beef tallow as I don’t use any plant oils at all.
I do this with a keto mock general tso's, and it's very similar. Only I mix the protein powder with the eggs and a touch of water to make a batter. I think it gives much better coverage, and the powder doesn't want to pull off, like it does from the egg wash once it's laid down on a plate. I wonder how orange extract would taste in this.
@@Jolindsay13 I learned the hard way! I was making buttermilk-fried chicken and I spent the whole night slicing, de-boning, marinating and seasoning, only to have 80% of the protein powder pull off of the chicken. Plus, that powder is like $20 per 1lb pack! Next time, I mixed it up and made a batter, however, and it works fantastic. Yes, also saves a ton of time from having to dip back and forth.
@@lemmh2 thank you! Because I wasn't going to make this stay huh because it was so labor intensive. Even though it tasted so good! Now I will with this tip.
I have been watching Myra for several months but this is the first recipe I decided to make. My goodness my goodness my goodness. I’m ready to try all her recipes now y’all! This was delicious!!!!! I might make the sauce a tiny bit less sweet next time but it really was pretty perfect. I used a few drops of Orange essential oil instead of zest because that’s what I had. I did add the eggs to the dry mix to make a batter for time’s sake. The coating stayed on great! Seriously yummy y’all! I have a different kind of protein powder than hers and there is a tiny bit of almost like….sandy texture that I detect on the back end but that may not be the case with other protein powders. I’ll make this again and again! Hubs and I made this together! Super fun! Thanks Myra!
Same here! You have definitely helped me with sticking with my keto. Everything i have eaten from your channel has def been the best! Im hooked! Thanks again and keep em coming!
Let me start by saying I appreciate you!!!! Made this last night.. it was amazing!!! Passed the Hubby test!!! The only step I added was to marinate the chicken thighs in Naranja Agria (Sour Orange) to increase the orange flavor since I forgot to buy an orange. I used what I had in my spice cabinet which was Spice Islands Orange Peel instead (will definitely buy an orange next time). I also needed more of the "breading" to cover my chicken thighs, but that could just be user error on my part!
When I was growing up one of my favorite chinese dishes was beef & tomato friend rice.. my mom and I would always order it when we went out for chinese food.. I would love that!
I've just made Chicken Stock , out of the left over Chicken Sauce , that was left over in the bottom of the pan and it' YUMMMY SCRUMPTIOUS ! Thank you ! The Orange Chicken Sauce is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 😋 THANK YOU 😊
So this was my first recipe of Mayra's that I've made and it was sooooo good. I ate mine with broccoli. The only thing I would do differently is cut my sweetener down which is the Pyure brand. It was still delicious. Thanks Mayra!
This was absolutely amazing! The chicken was absolute wizardry. My family were absolutely fans of this meal and have been raving about it days afterwards. I'll be making this again.
I made this for lunch today!! It’s delicious 😋 I added fried cauliflower rice! It’s similar to house fried rice. First recipe I have tried your channel 💕💕
I made this tonight for dinner and IT WAS UH-MAZ-ING!!! Your recipes never fail me. Thank you!!! I do wish you would include the serving size for the nutritional info listed.
After gaining about 35 lbs back, you’ve inspired me to start eating low carb again ❤️ QUESTION- do u think a tiny splash of orange extract in the sauce would be ok? Just to give it more of the orange flavor?
Definitely going to give this a try. Going to experiment with the air fryer as well; However, this technique has inspired me to make lemon chicken scallopini with some asparagus and some shirataki noodles!
Good morning Myra, I've been watching you for about a week now and I just love your videos. New or an inspiration to me and I'm sure everyone else who follows your channel. I have adopted some of the principles of the keto plan and they are working well in my weight loss journey. I think I'm more low carb than keto but is really helped to cut out white flour, potatoes, sugar, and highly sweet fruits. Nothing ever worked for me until now. I'm so happy to not be counting any calories or fat grams etc. Just watching carefully the carbs that go in and it's working. I hope others will follow suit and jump on the low carb lifestyle. Again thank you so much Myra I really enjoy watching you. You're beautiful and you're lovely and you're very very helpful. I also enjoyed watching the story of you and your fiance. Beautiful couple beautiful home wonderful life!
Oh my goodness! Looks amazing! I keep seeing recipes with unflavored protein powder, now that I see how crispy that chicken is, I must get some. Will definitely try this!
I actually tried one I created , it’s almost the same but I added concentrated orange juice zero sugar, with the orange zest and other things . I keep a big jar in the fridge, because it’s the favorite sauce to my daughter . ❤️
Made this today the lazy way. Lol. Bought wings from Wingstop and put them in the sauce. Omg. It was so good. Was definitely missing orange Chicken. Man Letty you make me feel like Keto can be a life long thing. I really appreciate all the recipes you put on TH-cam. You keep me really motivated and satisfied.
@@whateverchannel22 very true, I never get the breaded wings or chicken strips. I go for the bone in wings. Parmesan, lemon pepper, Louisiana rub, or plain. They are all keto friendly.
Myra, I made this orange chicken tonight and it was exceptional. Will never go back to the high carb one. Thank you for all you do for your subbies. 💛💐
This was so good! While the second batch of chicken was browning I put the first batch in the air fryer for about 4 minutes and then put the second batch in while I made the sauce. It was so crispy it was better than takeout
😱 OMG I made this and it’s OMG 😱 no words to describe!!! The only thing I did differently was I used monkfruit as my sweetener. This is recipe is a winner no joke! Thank you Mayra I’ve been binge watching your recipes and there are so many I want to make
I am not able to stay on my very strict diet, because I keep snacking on this dish. It tastes wonderful. And I may have to divorce my wife because she is sneaking into the refrigerator and eating the leftovers. Soon it will be all gone and the war will begin. This was a very happy home until the Orange Chicken arrived. I will have to shop for recipe insurance ( like life insurance but the injury is food attacks).
You are the best! Thank you for sharing this I loooooove orange chicken and thought I would never eat it again, you just made my life happier! Thank you!!❤
I just found you through this recipe and love how simple your recipes are! I've been getting back into low carb and keto and looking for new inspiration to go with our favorites! I am definitely trying this soon! New subscriber!
This looks so delicious! Mayra can you recommend any substitute for the protein powder for those of us who live in countries that have no access to Amazon please?😭🙏🏻 i really wanna make it
New sub here wow that looks so good can't wait to try thos with my son we love panda Express orange chicken who doesn't! You had me at keto orange chicken! Lol!
I love orange chicken!!! It started out really delicious. Then because I used monkfruir for sweetener, I think that's why it kinda crystallized as it cooled. Changed the texture drastically. It wasn't shiny like yours either. I really love your recipes though. Keep up the tasty keto recipes! Thanks.
Me and my husband loves Chinese . I had to save this recipe. We are going to have this for a night. All your recipes are delicious. You need to have your own channel. I was telling my husband sense we been on this keto . The food is good,and you don't feel heavy . You feel full but a good full. Keep these delicious recipes coming.
Oh my God, just made this tonight . Girlfriend I vow to you this is sooooo good even hubby loved it. We will be making this again and trying out other of your recipes. Thank you soooo much for sharing with us.
I had baked some chicken tenders and decided to try this sauce with them. Best keto meal ever!! I made some cauliflower rice and a double bath of the sauce. I will make this every week!!! thank You!!
I was so exited to find another recipe that uses isopure protein powder because I bought it for one recipe a while ago and it was kind of expensive so i love that it isn’t going to waste! I’m going to make this tonight and my family is so excited to try it :) going to make it along with the fried rice recipe
Just made this since I was convinced by the other comments on how good this was and I must say it’s pretty impressive, tried other keto orange chicken recipes and those were awful, this was amazing!
Hi guys!! I've had a few questions on the sweetener. This is the one I used (amzn.to/3gSvggA) and 3/4 cup was perfect. If you're using monk fruit or erythritol or confectioners, half the sweetener first, taste it and add more to your liking 💗

Marinas Froot thank you!
This was my favorite Chinese food take-out and it looks delicious. And NO Almond Flour! You might also want to add "Nut-free" to your title.
Anyone know if I can use liquid Stevia instead? There are zero carbs, less the better!

She’s not lying. This is the real deal! I made it today. Thanks for an awesome recipe.🙂
Woohoo! I’m so glad you enjoyed! More Asian inspired recipes coming 👩🍳
I'm making it tonight I can't wait
Desire Love how was it??
No cap!
Ok I’ll try it
Substituted protein power with blanched almond flour and used swerve confectioner sweetner. Holy cow this was damn good 🤘
Gonna give it a try!
Awesome idea for a swap I have almond flour but not protein powder lol thanks!
@Mica Weaver yuppp

Oh I was wondering if almond flour would work.
Excellent for the advice im using almond flour today ..
What do you mean by swerve confectioners? Im new to keto...
@@violetasw1880 swerve is the name of the confectioner sugar. you can buy it at amazon or walmart

You should Try Mayra’s Lemon Bars & Choc. Cake.
This was absolutely amazing! The chicken was absolute wizardry. My family were absolutely fans of this meal and have been raving about it days afterwards. I'll be making this again.
I made this for lunch today!! It’s delicious 😋 I added fried cauliflower rice! It’s similar to house fried rice. First recipe I have tried your channel 💕💕
Do you mind sharing your fried rice recipe!?!? Would love a “tried” recipe.
I made this tonight for dinner and IT WAS UH-MAZ-ING!!! Your recipes never fail me. Thank you!!! I do wish you would include the serving size for the nutritional info listed.
After gaining about 35 lbs back, you’ve inspired me to start eating low carb again ❤️ QUESTION- do u think a tiny splash of orange extract in the sauce would be ok? Just to give it more of the orange flavor?
That’s what I do and it makes a big difference in my opinion
I made this and it is AWESOME! Thank you sweetie yummo
Definitely going to give this a try. Going to experiment with the air fryer as well; However, this technique has inspired me to make lemon chicken scallopini with some asparagus and some shirataki noodles!
Let me know how it goes in the air fryer 😊
Now that's a keto recipe I need!
Good morning Myra, I've been watching you for about a week now and I just love your videos. New or an inspiration to me and I'm sure everyone else who follows your channel. I have adopted some of the principles of the keto plan and they are working well in my weight loss journey. I think I'm more low carb than keto but is really helped to cut out white flour, potatoes, sugar, and highly sweet fruits. Nothing ever worked for me until now. I'm so happy to not be counting any calories or fat grams etc. Just watching carefully the carbs that go in and it's working. I hope others will follow suit and jump on the low carb lifestyle. Again thank you so much Myra I really enjoy watching you. You're beautiful and you're lovely and you're very very helpful. I also enjoyed watching the story of you and your fiance. Beautiful couple beautiful home wonderful life!
Oh my goodness! Looks amazing! I keep seeing recipes with unflavored protein powder, now that I see how crispy that chicken is, I must get some. Will definitely try this!
I actually tried one I created , it’s almost the same but I added concentrated orange juice zero sugar, with the orange zest and other things . I keep a big jar in the fridge, because it’s the favorite sauce to my daughter . ❤️
Making it this weekend. Thank you for showing me how to perfect the cauliflower friend rice! I've mad it twice and my honey loves it.
Your recipes are changing my life. Thank you!
Made this today the lazy way. Lol. Bought wings from Wingstop and put them in the sauce. Omg. It was so good. Was definitely missing orange Chicken. Man Letty you make me feel like Keto can be a life long thing. I really appreciate all the recipes you put on TH-cam. You keep me really motivated and satisfied.
Breaded chicken from Wingstop isn't keto-friendly.
@@whateverchannel22 very true, I never get the breaded wings or chicken strips. I go for the bone in wings. Parmesan, lemon pepper, Louisiana rub, or plain. They are all keto friendly.
@@TheCyberguycpt I see....all about the sauce. :)
Myra, I made this orange chicken tonight and it was exceptional. Will never go back to the high carb one. Thank you for all you do for your subbies. 💛💐
Mayra delicioso voy hacerla!!! Todo lo que haces me encanta .Saludos desde Mon
This was so good! While the second batch of chicken was browning I put the first batch in the air fryer for about 4 minutes and then put the second batch in while I made the sauce. It was so crispy it was better than takeout
You are adorable, I do this weird papa dance “as my husband calls it” when I get some good comida 🤟🏻🥳💕
in our family we call it the fat dance, LMAO. we don't even notice when we do it
😱 OMG I made this and it’s OMG 😱 no words to describe!!! The only thing I did differently was I used monkfruit as my sweetener. This is recipe is a winner no joke! Thank you Mayra I’ve been binge watching your recipes and there are so many I want to make
This looks amazing!! I have missed Asian foods sooo much! It’s on my list to try this weekend. Thanks Mayra!
I’m the same! I love Asian food so much 😭 This has got to be one of my favs along with my honey walnut shrimp recipe!
Low Carb Love 😛😛😋😋
I am eating this right now… it’s so good. I can’t believe how crunchy it is!!!!! What is this sorcery?!?!
Omg. This looks sooo good! 😭 trying this as soon as possible! -Sarah
It was the best thing ever! Reminded me of when I was obsessed with Chinese takeout 🥰
Omg 😳 your facial expressions made me taste what you're tasting...... thank you!
I am not able to stay on my very strict diet, because I keep snacking on this dish. It tastes wonderful. And I may have to divorce my wife because she is sneaking into the refrigerator and eating the leftovers. Soon it will be all gone and the war will begin. This was a very happy home until the Orange Chicken arrived. I will have to shop for recipe insurance ( like life insurance but the injury is food attacks).
😂
You are the best! Thank you for sharing this I loooooove orange chicken and thought I would never eat it again, you just made my life happier! Thank you!!❤
I just found you through this recipe and love how simple your recipes are! I've been getting back into low carb and keto and looking for new inspiration to go with our favorites! I am definitely trying this soon! New subscriber!
*I can't wait to try this out and impress my family with a flavorful and wholesome meal. Thanks for sharing this amazing keto orange chicken recipe.*
Okay, this definitely blew my mind away 😳 I would never think about using protein powder 😂❤️😍
Making this tomorrow! Made your low carb waffles and OMG AMAZING! I thought they were the real deal! Thank you!!!❤
This looks so delicious! Mayra can you recommend any substitute for the protein powder for those of us who live in countries that have no access to Amazon please?😭🙏🏻 i really wanna make it
Thank you! You can also use Arrowroot or cornstarch 😊
You can also try oat fiber.
LOL. I used vanilla protein powder because it’s all I had…with less sugar in the sauce. and that sh*t still slapped. SOOOO GOOD!
New sub here wow that looks so good can't wait to try thos with my son we love panda Express orange chicken who doesn't! You had me at keto orange chicken! Lol!
I love orange chicken!!! It started out really delicious. Then because I used monkfruir for sweetener, I think that's why it kinda crystallized as it cooled. Changed the texture drastically. It wasn't shiny like yours either. I really love your recipes though. Keep up the tasty keto recipes! Thanks.
Going out to buy my ingredients to make this for me and my hubby tomorrow night. TGIF
Yay! I’m so excited to hear what you think, love ❤️🤗
ok just made this and it was a Winner! I will definitely be making this again. Soooo Good.
I just sent you a comment about how to thicken a sauce. Thank you for showing me on this video! You rock!!!
"We are about that spicy life"
Meanwhile Indians in the corner having that for dessert.

Me and my husband loves Chinese . I had to save this recipe. We are going to have this for a night. All your recipes are delicious. You need to have your own channel.

Making this a 2nd time today. One of the most authentic tasting keto converted meals I have had.
🤤 ...girl I need fries so I can have something while hubby eats real ones
Heavenly fan makes a keto fry recipe and it is so good
I had baked some chicken tenders and decided to try this sauce with them. Best keto meal ever!! I made some cauliflower rice and a double bath of the sauce. I will make this every week!!! thank You!!
I’m no cooker but i followed your instructions and WOW fantastic deliciousness !!! i am so proud of myself haha. Thanks so much!
I was so exited to find another recipe that uses isopure protein powder because I bought it for one recipe a while ago and it was kind of expensive so i love that it isn’t going to waste! I’m going to make this tonight and my family is so excited to try it :) going to make it along with the fried rice recipe
I can't even tell you how thankful I am to have found your channel 💗
Just made this since I was convinced by the other comments on how good this was and I must say it’s pretty impressive, tried other keto orange chicken recipes and those were awful, this was amazing!
Diana! This just made my day I am so happy you enjoyed it :)
Just found you and love how you do your videos. So many talk so much they take forever to get to the recipe..you are awesome
I just made this recipe using 1/4 cup granulated monk fruit and erythritol with 2 droppers of liquid stevia. Amazingly delicious! Thanks Mayra!
the protein powder idea is genius
Thank you so much for these videos. I've got sixty more pounds to make my goal and need all the help I can get!
