The Orange Chicken, a Chinese-American classic, was the
culinary inspiration for my crispy orange tofu.
Many credit Chef Andy Kao of the famed American-Chinese fast food business Panda
Express with coming up with the recipe for this sweet and sour chicken dish.
The dish's distinctive flavor profile propelled it to culinary stardom,
solidifying its place in Chinese-American cuisine.
Orange Chicken, a symbol of American-Chinese food, is not Chinese.
