Keto Orange Chicken

A delicious popular chicken dish served in many popular restaurants, this keto-friendly orange chicken will be your perfect low-carb meal.

Orange chicken is one of our favorite dishes in Chinese cuisine. It’s one of the most popular dishes at Chinese restaurants, such as Panda Express.

The main ingredient is chicken breast, a super great source of protein. You can also use chicken thigh for this as well.

The regular orange chicken is not keto-friendly because of the use of cornstarch, flour, soy sauce, brown sugar, and orange juice. To keep it low carb, we simply need to substitute a few ingredients. 

To bread the chicken meat, eggs and coconut flour are used. For the orange sauce, we use orange extract, orange zest, chicken broth, olive oil, ginger and erythritol for sweetening.

In the end, you will get an incredibly beautiful dish that is healthy and tasty.
