Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 F. Spray one large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Cut chicken into 1 inch pieces. Place well beaten eggs into a pie plate; combine Panko and flour in another pie plate, mixing well.
- Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, then into the crumb mixture. Place on baking sheet so they do not touch. Bake for 10 minutes, turn using tongs and continue baking for another 10 minutes. Chicken should be cooked and lightly golden brown.
- While chicken bakes, combine all but 2 tablespoons of the juice along with zest, soy, brown sugar, rice wine, Siracha, garlic and ginger in a small saucepan. Place over high heat and bring to a boil, then stir and reduce heat to low. Continue to cook for 15 minutes.
- Combine reserved orange juice and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Stir into the sauce and cook about 2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat to a large bowl.
- Gently toss chicken with the sauce until well coated. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onion and serve over cooked rice.
