Enjoy a flavorful twist on traditional orange chicken with this lighter, crispy baked version paired with perfectly roasted asparagus. This dish offers a delightful balance of tangy orange zest, crispy coating, and tender chicken breast, making it a satisfying and nutritious meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Orange Zest
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Spices (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder) to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg white, orange juice, orange zest, and a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the panko breadcrumbs in another shallow dish. Dip the chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it is well-coated, then dredge in the breadcrumbs until evenly covered.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray if desired.
Trim the asparagus and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange the asparagus around the chicken on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy, and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a couple of minutes, then serve immediately with any extra orange sauce drizzled over the chicken if desired.
