INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
1 medium Orange
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Red Pepper Flakes
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
In a bowl, combine the chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces if preferred) with the cornstarch. Toss to ensure each piece is lightly coated.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, squeeze the juice of the orange, add minced garlic, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced and fragrant.
Pour half of the orange glaze over the coated chicken pieces, reserving the rest for dipping or additional drizzle.
Place the chicken on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating appears crispy.
While the chicken bakes, toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread it out on another baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 15 minutes, until tender with slightly crispy edges.
Once cooked, serve the crispy orange chicken alongside the roasted broccoli, drizzling the reserved orange glaze over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
