Water

1/4 cup

Cornstarch

1 1/2 tbsp

Orange juice

Preheat the oven to 375° F (190° C/Gas mark 5).
Place chicken in a bowl. Add salt and olive oil. Toss to coat. Place the chicken on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
Make the sauce: combine cornstarch and water in a bowl until incorporated. In a saucepan, combine the cornstarch mixture, orange juice, zest, soy sauce, chili paste, brown sugar, garlic, and vinegar. Bring to a simmer. Keep cooking for 3 minutes, or until has thickened.
Then, pour the orange sauce over the baked chicken. Toss to coat. Serve.
