Cut up the chicken breast into small pieces
In a medium sized mixing bowl add 2T Corn Starch, add the chicken and toss to coat evenly
In a shallow dish add the flour, egg, water, salt and pepper and mix together
In a pan (with a high lip) add the oil so there is enough to cover 2/3 of the chicken pieces and heat on medium high heat
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces into the batter mixture and coat well. Add to the oil and cook until golden. Be sure to continuously flip so all sides get cooked 5-7 minutes in total
While the chicken is cooking, in a small bowl add the orange juice, zest, sugar, soy sauce, garlic. Mix together well
Once the chicken is cooked move to the side and add the sauce to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes
In a small bowl, mix together 1T corn starch and 3T water. This will act as a thickening agent for the sauce
Add the starch mixture to the sauce and stir until it is nice and ooey gooey! Add the chicken back in and toss!!
Time to eat!
