Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lb Boneless, Skinless, Chicken Breast
  • 2 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Vegetable Oil 
  • 1 Sesame Seeds
  • 1 Green Onions
  • 1 cup Brown Rice
  • 2 cup Water
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1/2 cup Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice 
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/3 cup Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tbsp Orange Zest
  • 1 tsp Sriracha
  • 1/4 tsp Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp White Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Bring 2 cup water to a boil, add 1 cup brown rice. Cover and reduce heat for 10-12 minutes To make the marinade, whisk together chicken broth, orange juice, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, orange zest, Sriracha, ginger and white pepper in a large bowl. In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine chicken and 2/3 cup of the marinade; marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Heat remaining marinade in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and stir in 2 tablespoons cornstarch combined with 2 tablespoons water. Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened about 1-2 minutes; keep warm. Working one at a time, dip the chicken into the eggs, then dredge in remaining 1 cup cornstarch, pressing to coat. Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Add chicken and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; discard excess oil. Serve chicken immediately, tossed or drizzled with the marinade, garnished with sesame seeds and green onion.
