INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 medium Orange
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
Olive Oil Spray
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss the pieces with cornstarch until evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Lightly spray the basket with olive oil.
Place the coated chicken pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway through, until the chicken is crispy and cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, zest the orange and then juice it, removing any seeds. In a small saucepan, combine the fresh orange juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Simmer on low heat for 3-5 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
Once the chicken is done, transfer it to a bowl and pour the warm orange sauce over. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Finish by adding a bit of fresh orange zest on top and serve immediately.
