Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey Garlic Chicken
- Start by coating your chicken breasts or thighs in a bowl with a lightly beaten egg, ensuring each piece is well-covered. Then, sprinkle cornstarch generously over the chicken pieces, using your hands to coat them evenly.
- In a large skillet, heat about two tablespoons of peanut or vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot enough, carefully place the coated chicken pieces in the skillet.
- Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to flip the chicken gently.
- While the chicken is cooking, combine honey, minced garlic, chicken broth, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes in a separate bowl. Stir until well mixed.
- Once the chicken is cooked, pour the sauce mixture over it in the skillet and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Add a tablespoon of butter to the skillet and stir gently until it melts and blends into the sauce.
- Serve your Honey Garlic Chicken warm over a bed of steamed rice or cauliflower rice, garnished with thinly sliced green onions.

Notes
For best results, ensure the chicken is coated well and avoid overcrowding the pan during frying.
