Crispy Air-Fried Orange Chicken
Enjoy a zesty twist on a classic favorite with this Crispy Air-Fried Orange Chicken. Tender pieces of chicken breast are marinated in fresh orange juice and soy sauce, lightly coated in a crisp panko and egg white mixture, then air-fried to perfection. The bright citrus notes burst through the crunch, providing a satisfying balance of savory and tangy flavors in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast (~170g)
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (~15g)
1 Egg White (~33g)
1/2 medium Orange (zest & juice, ~80g)
1 teaspoon Soy Sauce (~5g)
1 teaspoon Cornstarch (~3g)
1 teaspoon Honey (~7g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, combine the juice and zest of half an orange, soy sauce, cornstarch, and honey to create a light, tangy marinade.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk the egg white in a separate bowl until slightly frothy.
Lightly coat each chicken piece in the egg white, then roll in panko breadcrumbs until fully covered.
Place the coated chicken pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with cooking oil if desired.
Air fry the chicken at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is crispy and the chicken is cooked through.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra orange zest if desired.
