Enjoy a delightfully light take on classic orange chicken, featuring tender, baked chicken pieces lightly coated in a whole wheat crust and tossed in a tangy, homemade orange glaze. This dish delivers a perfect balance of protein, natural sweetness, and savory spices for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
2 tablespoons Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tablespoon Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Honey
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg white, whole wheat flour, garlic powder, and ground ginger.
In a separate shallow dish, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken piece first into the egg white mixture and then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
While baking, prepare the orange glaze by combining fresh orange juice, low-sodium soy sauce, honey, and a pinch of garlic powder in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Once the chicken is done, toss the baked pieces in the warm orange glaze until fully coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, crispy orange chicken.
