Crispy Air-Fried Orange Chicken
Enjoy a vibrant twist on a classic favorite with crispy, air-fried chicken drizzled in a tangy orange glaze. This recipe delivers a satisfying crunch accompanied by the bright, citrusy aroma of fresh orange zest and juice, perfectly rounded with a hint of garlic and pepper.
INGREDIENTS
1 piece (150g) Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 teaspoon Cornstarch
1 teaspoon Orange Zest
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder.
In a shallow bowl, lightly beat the egg white. In a separate plate, combine the panko breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and additional garlic powder if desired.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg white, then dredge thoroughly in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the breaded chicken strips in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Lightly spray or brush with olive oil.
Air-fry the chicken for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway for even crispiness, until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the orange glaze by combining fresh orange juice, cornstarch, and orange zest in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, transfer it to a serving bowl and drizzle with the warm orange glaze. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crispy, tangy flavors.
