Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cornstarch
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup Hoisin sauce
• 0.5 cup Orange juice
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Set up three separate bowls: one with all-purpose flour mixed with cornstarch, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

Step 3

Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, dip into the beaten eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken bites in batches, cooking 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 5

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine hoisin sauce, orange juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and orange zest. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

Step 6

Toss the fried chicken bites in the hoisin orange glaze until evenly coated.

Step 7

Transfer the chicken bites to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy!
