INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/8 cup Almond Flour
1 large Egg White
1/3 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Orange Zest
2 tbsp Green Onions
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces for quicker, more even cooking.
In a bowl, whisk the egg white and then add the almond flour. Mix until a light batter forms.
Dredge each piece of chicken in the batter, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
Place the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is lightly golden.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh orange juice, low-sodium chicken broth, cornstarch, and orange zest. Whisk continuously until the sauce starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, drizzle the thickened orange sauce over the crispy baked chicken pieces.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.
