Ingredients:

• 1 pound chicken breasts, cut into strips
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Instructions:

1. In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken strips evenly in the flour mixture.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, olive oil, and minced garlic.
