Sticky Honey Chicken (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Chicken
01 -
1½ pounds chicken breasts without skin or bones, diced into 1-inch chunks
02 -
½ teaspoon black pepper
03 -
½ teaspoon salt
04 -
3 tablespoons of cornstarch
→ Sauce
05 -
2 teaspoons cornstarch
06 -
⅓ cup of honey
07 -
1 teaspoon hot sriracha sauce
08 -
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
09 -
2 tablespoons soy sauce
10 -
2 tablespoons water or chicken broth
11 -
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
# Instructions:
01 -
Pat the chicken pieces with a paper towel to eliminate excess moisture. Cut into 1-inch cubes if not already done. Sprinkle on the salt and pepper. Toss the seasoned chicken with cornstarch in a medium bowl until evenly coated.
02 -
Mix honey, soy sauce, chicken broth (or water), cornstarch, ginger, sriracha, and garlic in a small bowl. Stir well and set it nearby. Make sure to give it another stir before using!
03 -
In a big skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in small portions (5-6 minutes each batch) until it turns golden and is fully cooked. Keep the chicken warm in a covered bowl or dish.
04 -
Pour the sauce you prepared into the same skillet. Whisk continually over medium heat until it thickens up and looks shiny—this takes about a minute.
05 -
Toss the cooked chicken back into the skillet with the sauce. Stir it all up until the chicken is evenly coated and warmed through. Top with chopped green onions and enjoy over noodles or rice while it’s hot.
