Crispy Baked Orange Chicken with Zesty Glaze
Enjoy a vibrant twist on classic crispy chicken with a tangy orange glaze. This dish features succulent, perfectly baked chicken breast coated in a light, crunchy panko crust, then drizzled with a homemade orange and honey glaze enhanced by garlic and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an irresistible, zesty flavor.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
1 large Egg White
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Sesame Seeds
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine the panko bread crumbs and cornstarch. Lightly season with salt and pepper if desired.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
Dip the chicken breast in the egg white, then dredge thoroughly in the panko mixture to coat evenly.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes, turning halfway, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh orange juice, honey, minced garlic (if using), and a pinch of salt. Allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes until it slightly thickens.
Once the chicken is done, drizzle the zesty orange glaze over the crispy pieces and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of tangy citrus and crunchy texture.
