Ingredients

10.5 oz chicken fillet 300g
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sriracha sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
2 tbsp cornstarch or potato starch
1.5 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 green onion stalk

Instructions

Cut the chicken into small pieces.
Place the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl, season with salt and pepper, and pour the starch over them. Mix well so that the chicken pieces are evenly coated with a thin layer of starch.
In a small bowl, mix the honey, soy sauce, Sriracha sauce, and garlic powder to form a smooth sauce.
Pour olive oil into a pan and heat over medium/high heat. Place the chicken pieces in the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the chicken is slightly crispy and browned on both sides.
Reduce heat to medium and pour all the sauce over the chicken and mix well. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened and stuck to the chicken nicely.
Serve the honey chicken with cooked rice, noodles, or any other side dish of your choice. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Enjoy!
