Orange Chicken

My kids really like orange chicken and I have experimented quite a bit with different recipes.  I finally ended up finding 2 that I like and combining them.  I used the cooking method in one, and the sauce from the other.  It's relatively easy to make, but a little bit time consuming.  My kids love it though, and it is delicious, so every once in a while it is worth it! 2 lbs chicken (I use breast because that's usually what I have on hand) 1-2 cups saltine crackers, or bread crumbs 2 eggs, beaten 1 cup flour 2 Tbsp olive oil 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Blend or crush a sleeve of saltine crackers until fine.  Spray a large baking sheet with non stick spray.  2. Cut the chicken into small 1 inch pieces.  Put the flour in one bowl, the crumbs in a bowl, and the eggs in another bowl.  3. Dip the chicken in the flour, then the egg, and then coat with cracker crumbs and then place on prepared baking sheet. They will cook better if they are in one layer on the pan.
