Crispy Honey Chicken Recipe Taste

Ingredient

Chicken

• 1/2 teaspoon coriander
• 1 teaspoon of chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion
• canola oil or vegetable oil (about 2 "-3" oil in a pan with sides)
• 3 large chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 lbs, cut into large pieces)
• 1 1/2 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon of cumin
• 1 1/2 cups butter milk

Honey sauce

• 1 tablespoon of corn flour
• 2 tablespoons of water
• pinch of red chili flakes (optional)
• 1 tablespoon of water
• 1/2 cup Honey
• 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or rice wine vinegar

Instructions

Pour about 2 "-3" canola or vegetable oil into a large skillet with high sides. Change the burner to medium-high and let the oil heat up as you prepare the sauce and other ingredients.

For Honey Sauce

1. In a pan over medium heat, add honey, soy sauce, water, sesame oil, red pepper flakes (if using) and vinegar. Beat together and bring to a boil.
2. In a separate bowl, stir in corn flour and water. Put aside. After the sauce boils, slowly add the corn flour mixture, while whisking. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. If the sauce seems too thick (when you fry the chicken), add water, one tablespoon at a time, to thin it. You don't want the sauce to be too thin because it should be a thicker sauce.
4. The sauce is quite boiling on the stove when you fry the chicken.

Crispy chicken

1. Add flour, chili powder, cumin, coriander and shallot powder to the bowl. Stir with a fork to combine. In a sperate bowl, add buttermilk.
2. Two pieces of chicken at a time, once in each hand (finger), dip the chicken in flour, then in buttermilk and then back to flour. Place the coated chicken in hot oil and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning the chicken as needed. Chicken needs to be cooked until and up to 165 degrees.
3. Place cooked chicken on a paper-lined plate.
4. Continue cooking the remaining chicken in the batch until it's finished.
5. Mix all cooked chicken into a large bowl. Pour the hot honey sauce and stir gently until all the pieces of chicken are coated.
6. Serve with cooked rice and sliced green onions.
