INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 medium Orange (juiced)
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
1 tsp Sesame Seeds
1 spray Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and cut it into bite-sized pieces or strips for even cooking.
In a shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and cornstarch.
Finely mince the garlic and ginger, then mix them into the breadcrumb mixture.
Lightly coat the chicken pieces in the dry mixture, shaking off any excess.
Place the coated chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer and lightly spray with olive oil.
Air-fry the chicken for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure an even, crispy finish.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the orange sauce: in a small bowl, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice with soy sauce. Stir well to blend the flavors.
Once the chicken is crispy and cooked through, transfer it to a serving bowl and drizzle the orange sauce over the top.
Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
