Another Slow cooker recipe to fit your busy schedule, and another orange chicken recipe to add to this here blog of mine. Apparently when I see a recipe for orange chicken I make it, and then tell you about it. I have plenty of orange chicken recipes on this blog, but this one, I think has been my favourite. It does have quite a lot of ingredients. Kind of intimidating when you look at the list, but I think you will find you have most of the ingredients on hand. Really when you are throwing things in a slow cooker, it seems to make everything a’okay.
