Orange chicken is a popular dish in Chinese-American cuisine, often served in Chinese restaurants across the United States. It features a sweet and tangy orange sauce that complements the crispy chicken. The dish is believed to have been created in the 1980s and has since become a staple in many Chinese takeout menus, reflecting the fusion of traditional Chinese cooking with American tastes.
