INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1/2 medium Orange (zest and juice)
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 spray Non-stick Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white, orange juice, orange zest, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
Dip the chicken breast into the egg and orange mixture, ensuring it is well coated.
Dredge the coated chicken in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the surface.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top with non-stick cooking spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the coating is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
