INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1/3 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Minced Ginger
1 Garlic Clove, minced
1 tsp Coconut Oil
1 cup Steamed Broccoli
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch until evenly coated.
Heat coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is crispy and golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small saucepan, combine fresh orange juice, low-sodium soy sauce, honey, minced ginger, and garlic. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let the sauce reduce slightly for 3-4 minutes.
Pour the orange sauce over the crispy chicken in the skillet. Toss well to ensure all pieces are glistening with the sauce. Let it cook together for another 1-2 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Steam the broccoli until tender yet crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Plate the saucy orange chicken alongside the steamed broccoli and serve immediately.
