Instructions
Cook the Chicken
Season the chicken pieces with salt. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Make the Orange Sauce
While the chicken cooks, whisk together the orange marmalade and soy sauce in a small bowl until well combined. Once the chicken is cooked, reduce heat to medium and pour the sauce over the chicken.
Glaze and Serve
Stir the chicken to coat it completely in the orange sauce. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy, coating every piece of chicken. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
