 With vegetable peeler, cut peel from orange into 1 1/2 inch-wide

 chicken, soy sauce, sherry, green onions, red pepper and ginger.
 In small bowl, mix well cornstarch, sugar, salt and orange juice.
 Cover and refrigerate both.

 About 15 minutes before serving:  In 10-inch skillet over medium
 heat, in hot oil, with slotted spoon, stir-fry peels until crisp
 and edges are slightly browned, about 2 minutes;drain on paper
 towels.

 In remaining oil in skillet, over high heat, stir-fry chicken
 mixture until chicken loses pink color and is tender, about 4
 minutes. Stir orange-juice mixture, then add to chicken and
 stir-fry until mixture is slightly thickened and coats chicken.

 Spoon onto warm platter; sprinkle with peels.
