INGREDIENTS
150 grams Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, minced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Orange Zest
1 tsp Sesame Seeds
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces or strips for even baking.
In a bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy. In a separate shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Lightly season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Dip each piece first in the egg white, then coat evenly with panko breadcrumbs.
Arrange the breaded chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray (optional) to enhance crispiness.
Bake the chicken for 15-20 minutes until golden and cooked through, turning halfway to ensure even crisping.
While the chicken bakes, combine fresh orange juice, minced ginger, garlic, and orange zest in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 3-4 minutes to meld the flavors into a light orange sauce.
Once the chicken is done, transfer it to a serving bowl, drizzle with the warm orange sauce, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, crispy baked orange chicken.
