 Honey Garlic Chicken


Honey garlic chicken is a sweet and savory dish that's easy to make and incredibly delicious. Here's a simple recipe to make honey garlic chicken at home:

Ingredients:


1 lb (about 450g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
Optional garnish: sliced green onions, sesame seeds

Instructions:


Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper to taste.

Heat the olive oil or vegetable oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.

Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until well combined.

Pour the honey garlic sauce mixture into the skillet with the minced garlic. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly.

In another small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry.

Gradually pour the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss it in the honey garlic sauce until evenly coated.

Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the chicken to heat through and absorb the flavors of the sauce.

Optional: Garnish the honey garlic chicken with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for extra flavor and presentation.

Serve the honey garlic chicken hot over cooked rice or with your favorite side dishes.

Enjoy your homemade honey garlic chicken! It's sure to be a hit with family and friends.
