Tender juicy beef trapped within a crispy coating using potato starch and a double fry to give this dish the perfect texture. Then it all gets tossed in a fiery sweet and tangy sauce with the perfect orange backbone. Mangia!
Crispy Orange Beef has been my go to Szechuan entree ever since my father first introduced it to me when I was about 12 at a place long since gone in Lawrence, MA. I have been a full blown addict since. Where I currently live there is no chance of getting anything even remotely close to this dish as I remember it. New England American Chinese food is a separate culture not present in the PNW.
