INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Almond Flour
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tablespoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Honey
1 Garlic Clove
1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger
1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
2 tablespoons Scallions
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the Chicken Breast into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg to create a binding dip.
In another bowl, add the almond flour along with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Dip each chicken piece in the egg, then coat thoroughly in almond flour, shaking off any excess.
Place the coated chicken pieces evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp and golden.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the orange glaze by combining fresh orange juice, low sodium soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger in a small saucepan. Simmer on medium heat for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Once baked, transfer the chicken pieces to a serving bowl and drizzle the warm orange glaze over them.
Garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped scallions before serving.
