Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Cut the chicken into cubed chunks, then toss in a bowl with Cornstarch or Potato Starch. Use enough to coat the chicken evenly.
- Step 2
Place in the Air Fryer and cook according to your Air Fryer Manual for chicken. (Note - I cooked ours on 390* for 24 Minutes, 12 minutes on each side.) Once the chicken is in the air fryer, coat it with olive oil cooking spray, coat it again if needed about 1/2 way through the cook time.
- Step 3
While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, begin to make the sauce.
- Step 4
Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, orange juice, hoisin sauce, ground ginger, and garlic to the saucepan on medium-high heat. Whisk this well to mix it up.
- Step 5
Once the sugar has fully dissolved and a low-boil is reached, whisk in the water and the cornstarch. (The sauce will only take about 5 minutes to cook on the stove, then an additional 5 minutes to thicken.)
- Step 6
Mix in the sesame seeds.
- Step 7
Remove from heat and let the sauce set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Step 8
Once the chicken is done, remove from the air fryer and coat with the sauce.
- Step 9
Serve topped over rice and beans.
