1 tablespoon chopped fresh orange peel

Cut the chicken into slices or cubes. Place in a bowl. Stir in the soy sauce, ginger, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Mix well, cover the bowl, and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

Remove the chicken from the skillet with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
Drain off all but 2 teaspoons of the grease left in the wok. Reheat the work over medium-high heat and add the dried chiles. Cook, stirring constantly, for 10 seconds.
