    1. Directions:<\/li>\n
    2. Mix chicken broth, orange juice, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, Mrs Dash Chicken Grilling Seasoning, hot sauce, ginger and white pepper in a large bowl. Combine chicken and 2\/3 cup of the marinade; marinate for at least 30 minutes, mixing occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade.<\/li>\n
    3. Heat remaining marinade in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and stir in 2 tbsp. cornstarch combined with 2 tbsp. water. Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened about 1-2 minutes; keep warm.<\/li>\n
    4. Working one at a time, dip the chicken into the eggs, then dredge in remaining 1 cup cornstarch, pressing to coat.<\/li>\n
    5. Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Add chicken and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; discard excess oil.<\/li>\n
    6. Serve chicken immediately, tossed or drizzled with the marinade, (optional: garnished with sesame seeds)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      Our estimates assume the use of fresh chicken with only 3% sodium per serving (instead of chicken that has been infused with a high-sodium broth).<\/p>\n

      Note that sodium percentages depend on which daily reference you use. The estimated 84mg of sodium per serving implies that one serving of this recipe provides:
      \n\u2013 3% of the U.S. FDA daily reference value for sodium for a 2,000-calorie diet that includes 2,400 mg sodium, or
      \n\u2013 6% of the American Heart Association recommendation of 1,500 mg sodium per day, or
      \n\u2013 8% of the M\u00e9ni\u00e8re\u2019s diet recommendation of 1,000 mg sodium per day.<\/p>\n

      (As is the case with all of the recipes on this web site, the nutrition information provided in this recipe is only an estimate based on nutrition information provided on the packaging of each of the ingredients we used in this recipe and\/or on a variety of sources on the web.
