INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (~142g)
1/4 cup Almond Flour (~28g)
1/3 cup Fresh Orange Juice (~80g)
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, minced
1 tsp Sesame Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the fresh orange juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Meanwhile, set up a coating station by placing the almond flour in a shallow dish.
Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the remaining marinade) and lightly dredge each piece in the almond flour, ensuring an even coating.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Lightly spray the basket with a bit of oil if needed.
Place the coated chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
While the chicken is air frying, heat the reserved marinade in a small saucepan for 2-3 minutes to serve as a light glaze.
Drizzle the heated orange glaze over the crispy chicken or serve on the side. Enjoy your crispy air-fried orange chicken!
