INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
2 Tbsp Almond Flour
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Orange Zest
1 Tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (grated)
1 clove Fresh Garlic (minced)
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Cornstarch
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces or strips, ensuring even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg white until slightly frothy. In a separate bowl, place the almond flour.
Dip each chicken piece in the egg white, then coat evenly with almond flour. Set the coated chicken aside.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Place the coated chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd. Air-fry for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken is golden and crispy.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the orange glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, low-sodium soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, and honey. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Mix the cornstarch with a small splash of water to make a slurry, then stir it into the simmering sauce. Continue to simmer and stir for 1-2 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly.
Once the chicken is crisp and fully cooked, transfer it to a serving bowl and drizzle the warm orange glaze over the top.
Serve immediately, enjoying a balance of tangy citrus and savory crispy chicken.
