Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4
ngredients
For the Chicken:
- 1.5 lbs (700g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch (for coating)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
For the Honey Garlic Sauce:
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water (for thickening)
For Garnish:
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, finely sliced
Instructions
Prep the Chicken:
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
- Toss the chicken in cornstarch until evenly coated. Shake off excess.
Cook the Chicken:
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary).
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
- Stir in honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add the cornstarch slurry and stir until the sauce thickens slightly (about 1-2 minutes).
Combine:
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce evenly. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes to soak up the flavors.
Garnish and Serve:
- Transfer the chicken to a serving dish and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
- Serve hot with steamed rice, noodles, or stir-fried vegetables.
Enjoy your Golden Honey Garlic Chicken! The sweet and savory sauce with a touch of sesame crunch makes it absolutely irresistible. 😊
