INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (20g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
1/3 cup Orange Juice (80g)
1 tsp Orange Zest (2g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (2g)
1 tbsp Cornstarch (8g)
1 cup Steamed Broccoli (90g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, whisk the egg white, then toss the chicken pieces in it until evenly coated.
In a separate bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and cornstarch together. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Dredge the chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture to ensure each piece is well-coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Lightly spray the basket with a cooking spray.
Place the chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the coating is crispy and the chicken is fully cooked, shaking the basket halfway through.
While the chicken is cooking, combine orange juice, orange zest, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced, forming a light glaze.
Once the chicken is done, drizzle the orange glaze over the crispy pieces.
Plate the crispy orange chicken with a side of steamed broccoli and serve immediately.
