Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Cornstarch
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch (for sauce)
- 1 teaspoon Water (for slurry)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Green onion, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
In a shallow bowl, combine cornstarch and all-purpose flour. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip each piece of chicken into the beaten eggs, then coat in the cornstarch-flour mixture. Set aside on a plate.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, water, and sugar. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved.
In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of water to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the honey sauce, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat.
Toss the fried chicken pieces in the honey sauce until well coated.
Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion if desired.
Serve immediately with steamed rice or as part of a larger meal.
