Next, you should peel the oranges so that all the pith are separated from the inside. The taste of orange stew depends on the type of oranges used in this stew. If you are using tart oranges, you can add more sugar to enhance the taste of the stew. For the best taste, it is better to use sour-sweet oranges that are neither too sweet nor too sour. You can also use mandarins for cooking this stew if you do not have oranges.

Step 6

Then chop the oranges into cubic chunks and add them to the pot. Let the chicken cook thoroughly, then add the oranges. If you add the oranges to the chicken too soon, they will break down and ruin the appearance of the stew. Sauté the oranges for a couple of minutes.
