This recipe is perfect for a lunch and for those days you need to make a dish in no time. While we sauté the chicken, we can be preparing the sauce to optimize the time.
If you like to sauté meats, I recommend that you purchase a non-stick frying pan, because that way you will be able to use much less oil in the preparations and it will be easier for meats or anything to cook better.
For this recipe you can use natural orange juice if you have the possibility, it would be ideal, but it would also be fine if you use boxed juice.
In the final presentation you can add sesame seeds, but if they don’t have or not like them, you can simply add chopped parsley or pieces of almonds or peanuts.
