INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
1/3 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (30g)
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice (65g)
1 tsp Orange Zest (2g)
1 tbsp Cornstarch (8g)
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce (16g)
Olive Oil Spray (3 sprays)
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-size pieces or strips for quicker, even cooking.
In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg white. In another shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken piece first into the egg white ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge through the panko breadcrumbs to create a crispy layer.
Lightly spray the coated chicken pieces with olive oil spray to help with browning.
Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through until golden and cooked through.
Meanwhile, prepare the orange sauce by combining the fresh orange juice, orange zest, low-sodium soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Stir well to create a slurry.
Bring the sauce mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring continuously until it thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the air fryer and toss it lightly in the warm orange sauce ensuring each piece is well coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy air-fried orange chicken!
