INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tbsp Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Honey
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/2 tsp Fresh Ginger, grated
1 tsp Sesame Seeds
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a shallow bowl, combine the whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the egg white in a separate bowl and lightly whisk until frothy.
Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour, then dip in the egg white to coat evenly.
Place the coated chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer and lightly spray with cooking spray if needed.
Air fry the chicken for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are crispy and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the orange sauce by combining the fresh orange juice, reduced sodium soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Once the chicken is done, transfer to a bowl and drizzle with the warm orange sauce. Toss gently to coat.
Finish with a light sprinkle of sesame seeds and serve immediately.
