Sticky Orange Chicken

Ingredients

2 large eggs, beaten

½ c. plus 

1 tbsp. cornstarch, divided

¼ c. all-purpose flour

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 

1” piecescanola oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

½ tsp. minced ginger

½ tsp. red chili flakes

2/3 c. freshly squeezed orange juice

2 tbsp. soy sauce

1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp. sweet chili sauce

1 tbsp. brown sugar

2 green onions, chopped

cooked white rice, for serving 

Directions

Set up dredging station: In one bowl add eggs, and in a second bowl mix together ½ cup cornstarch, flour, salt, and pepper. Coat chicken pieces in egg, then toss in cornstarch mixture, making sure to tap off any excess.

In a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1/4” oil. Once oil is shimmering, fry chicken in batches until golden and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon canola oil. Add garlic, ginger, and chili flakes and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Whisk in orange juice, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, chili sauce, and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, make cornstarch slurry: Mix remaining tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Slowly whisk slurry into sauce to thicken, and bring back to a simmer. Once sauce starts to look syrupy, about 5 minutes, remove from heat.

Toss chicken with sauce and green onions. Serve over white rice.

(Oh, did I mention that this dish is meant to be a snack? SNACK.)
