How to Make Spicy Asian Orange Sauce Hcg Phase 2

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 large orange (juiced and zested), and 1/2 lemon (juiced).
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15 minutes, adding more water as needed to prevent burning.
  3. Continue to simmer until the pulp separates from the orange and lemon rinds (about 10-15 minutes).
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the pulp to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the rinds.
  5. Return the strained juice to the saucepan. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce reduces by half and reaches your desired consistency (approximately 5-7 minutes).
  6. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped green onion, 1/2 teaspoon stevia (or to taste), 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste), 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately with your favorite HCG-approved protein.
