INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
3 tbsp Cornstarch (24g)
1/2 cup Fresh Orange Juice (120g)
1 tsp Honey (7g)
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Fresh Ginger
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place cornstarch in a shallow dish. Lightly dredge each chicken piece in the cornstarch to achieve a thin, even coating.
Arrange the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the orange glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh orange juice, honey, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the sauce to reduce slightly for 3-4 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle the warm orange glaze over the crispy chicken pieces.
Toss gently to coat the chicken evenly with the glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy your tangy, crispy baked orange chicken.
