  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
– ½ cup cornstarch
– 2 large eggs, beaten
– ⅓ cup gluten-free soy sauce
– 1 cup fresh orange juice
– Zest of 1 orange
– ¼ cup granulated sugar
– 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Green onions, for garnish
– Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

Creating delicious Gluten-Free Orange Chicken is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: In a large bowl, take the chicken pieces and season them with salt and pepper.

2. Create Coating Mixture: In another bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour and cornstarch.

3. Dredge Chicken: Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated.

4. Fry Chicken: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in batches and fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside on paper towels.

5. Make Sauce: In a saucepan, combine fresh orange juice, soy sauce, orange zest, sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.

6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Add the fried chicken pieces into the saucepan and toss until they are well-coasted with the orange sauce.

7. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.

8. Serve: Enjoy your Gluten-Free Orange Chicken warm, paired with your favorite side.
