Instruções

Cut the chicken into cubed chunks, then toss in a bowl with Cornstarch or Potato Starch. Use enough to coat the chicken evenly.

Place in the Air Fryer and cook according to your Air Fryer Manual for chicken. (Note - I cooked ours on 390* for 15-20 minutes, the internal temperature needs to be at least 165*F to be considered well done.)When the chicken is in the air fryer, add a nice even coat of olive oil cooking spray, once it's in the air fryer, it works best to mix it up halfway through cook time and add an additional coat of spray.

While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, begin to make the sauce.

Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, orange juice, hoisin sauce, ground ginger, and garlic to the saucepan on medium-high heat. Whisk this up until well combined.

Once the sugar has fully dissolved and a low boil is reached, whisk in the water and cornstarch.

Mix in the sesame seeds. (The sauce should only take about 5 minutes or less to make on the stove and then an additional 5 minutes to thicken up.)

Remove the sauce from the heat and set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.

Once the chicken is done, remove from the air fryer and place in a bowl, and then coat with the sauce.

Serve topped over rice and beans.
