Orange Chicken
Orange chicken is safe while breastfeeding! It's a bit high in sugar and sodium, but as an occasional meal it's completely fine and won't affect your milk or your baby.
Orange chicken features battered, fried chicken in a sweet orange sauce. All ingredients are breastfeeding-safe. Like most fast-casual Chinese dishes, it tends to be higher in sodium and added sugar, so it's best as an occasional meal rather than a daily staple. Pair it with steamed vegetables or a side salad to round it out nutritionally.
Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
