Using a sharp kitchen knife, cut the orange fillets from the separating skins and drain. Clean the spring onions and cut them into diagonal, thin rings.

Remove the peanuts from their shells and grind them to a medium fine powder in a Moulinette. Clean the chicken fillets, rinse when cooled, dry and season with salt and pepper. Turn chicken fillets first in the flour on the other side, then pull through the beaten eggs and finally press from both sides into the peanut crumbs.
