Orange Sauce:
- 1 large bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized pieces

- Prepare the Chicken – Begin by trimming excess fat from the boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Cut into bite-sized chunks. In a bowl, add chicken, oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Make the Orange Sauce – Heat griddle to 375-400°F. In a saucepan on the griddle, combine all sauce ingredients. Heat until sugar dissolves. Set aside.
- Cook the Chicken – Place chicken on griddle, cook until golden brown. Flip and cook until internal temperature reaches 150-160°F.
- Add and Reduce the Sauce – Move chicken, pour half of the sauce. Stir, add remaining sauce. Allow sauce to thicken, stirring occasionally.
Notes
- Ensure the chicken is cooked through before serving.
- You can adjust the spice level by adding more or less red pepper flakes.
