Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons lite soy sauce divided, optional coconut aminos, tamari, or bragg liquid aminos
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar divided
  • 1 tablespoon orange peel grated
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon coconut palm sugar or honey
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless and skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes
