Οδηγίες

1. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce, and the flour. Toss, making sure the flour has evenly coated the chicken.

2. In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and the ginger, garlic, orange zest, orange juice, hoisin sauce, vinegar, red pepper flakes, and toasted sesame oil.

3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken in an even layer and cook, stirring, until browned all over, about 5 minutes. Pour in the sauce and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is coated, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the green onions.

4. Serve the chicken over rice and top with more green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
