Step 1

Mix the chicken into the egg until fully coated before mixing in the corn starch until just evenly coated.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat, add the chicken, separate, and cook until golden brown, about 2-4 minutes per side, before setting aside, reserving the leftover oil in the pan.

Step 3

Meanwhile, mix the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, chili sauce, orange zest, garlic, ginger and cornstarch and set aside.

Step 4

Add the sauce mixture to the pan, bring it to a boil and simmer until it thickens a bit, about a minute.

Step 5

Add the chicken, toss to coat, remove from heat, mix in the sesame oil, sesame seeds and green onions and enjoy over rice or noodles.
