INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1 small Fresh Orange (96g)
1/4 cup Almond Flour (28g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Ginger Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, zest the fresh orange and then squeeze out its juice, reserving both zest and juice for the glaze.
In another bowl, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, ginger powder, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Dip the chicken into the egg white ensuring it’s fully coated, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture until evenly covered.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the orange glaze by gently simmering the orange juice and zest in a small saucepan over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until it slightly thickens. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt if desired.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle the warm orange glaze over the crispy chicken.
Serve immediately and enjoy your zesty, crispy baked orange chicken.
