I'm a whore for Cook's Illustrated. I've discussed it in depth before, and my new favorite bread recipe is theirs and I DVR America's Test Kitchen and I signed up to be a recipe tester - but sigh, they never call - maybe they've seen the blog and have good reasons.
So I went flipping through back issues and found this one: "Rescuing Orange-Flavored Chicken," in the May/June 2005 issue. I've never had Orange-Flavored Chicken, and thus, did not know it was in need of rescue. Apparently its an overly-sweet and sticky sauce on fried chicken that folks get via Chinese take-out.
It looked somewhat fussy, but really wasn't, but here's the thing - it's f-ing delicious. I suggest you make it.No recipe, but you can try the website out for free at the link above.
Also, for those of you who are tracking it, I actually made this last week. I still have plague and I'm still not cooking. I can't imagine cooking. It's like that.
