Ingredients

1 lb boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces 🍗

1/2 cup all-purpose flour 🌾

1/2 cup cornstarch 🌽

1 tsp garlic powder 🧄

1/2 tsp paprika 🌶️

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (adjust to taste) 🌶️

Salt and pepper to taste 🧂

1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying 🛢️

4 cloves garlic, minced 🧄

1/4 cup honey 🍯

2 tbsp soy sauce 🍜

1 tbsp rice vinegar 🍚

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional) 🌶️

Chopped green onions for garnish 🌿

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Toss the chicken pieces in the mixture until well coated. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken bites in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

In the same skillet, lower the heat and add minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant. Stir in honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes, cooking until the sauce thickens slightly. Add the crispy chicken bites back into the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly in the sweet garlic sauce.

Serve immediately, garnished with chopped green onions for a fresh touch. Enjoy the delightful combination of sweet, spicy, and crispy flavors!
