Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220 C. Toss the chicken thighs with salt, egg and cornstarch. Spread with vegetable oil and bake 18 to 22 minutes until golden.
  2. Simmer orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, garlic and ginger. Stir in a little cornstarch mixed with water until the sauce is glossy.
  3. Toss the baked chicken in the orange sauce. Scatter spring onion and serve.

Shopping tip

Fresh oranges and soy are easy. Rice vinegar in the world-food aisle. Zest the orange before you juice it.
