How to Make Ginger Orange Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Arrange 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a single layer, top side up, in a baking dish.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar substitute (e.g., Splenda), and 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger.
- Pour the orange ginger sauce evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Bake for 35 minutes.
- Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 tablespoon brown sugar substitute (Splenda), and 1/2 cup water until completely smooth.
- Pour the cornstarch mixture into the baking dish with the remaining pan juices. Stir to combine.
- Return the chicken to the baking dish, placing the breasts top side down in the sauce.
- Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through and tender (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C).
- Garnish with fresh orange slices and chopped parsley before serving.
