INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1/4 cup Panko Bread Crumbs (15g)
1/2 cup Fresh Orange Juice (124g)
1 tsp Orange Zest
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Fresh Grated Ginger
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 cup Steamed Broccoli (91g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with panko bread crumbs by pressing the crumbs onto the surface.
Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the orange sauce by combining fresh orange juice, orange zest, honey, and grated ginger in a small saucepan.
Mix in the cornstarch to the sauce and bring it to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Once baked, slice the chicken if desired and drizzle the warm orange sauce over it.
Serve the orange chicken with a side of steamed broccoli for a balanced, low-calorie meal.
