Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup orange juice
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
- 12 pieces spring roll wrappers
- 0.5 cup shredded carrots
- 0.5 cup shredded cabbage
- 3 stalks green onions
- 1 batch cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, combine cornstarch, flour, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, beat the eggs with water.
Coat the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, then dip them in the egg mixture, and coat again in the flour mixture.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat.
Fry the coated chicken pieces until golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sriracha if using.
Bring the sauce to a simmer, then thicken it with the cornstarch slurry. Cook for 2-3 minutes until it coats the back of a spoon.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the fried chicken pieces with the orange sauce until well coated.
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner facing you to form a diamond shape.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the orange chicken, a little shredded carrot, shredded cabbage, and green onion near the corner closest to you.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a bit of water or the cornstarch slurry.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet and fry the spring rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve warm with additional orange sauce for dipping, if desired.
