→ Chicken
07 -
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
08 -
1/2 tsp garlic powder
09 -
2 Tbsp butter
10 -
4 cloves of garlic, minced
11 -
2 green onions, sliced
12 -
3 Tbsp olive oil
13 -
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
14 -
1 tsp salt
15 -
1/2 tsp black pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
In a small bowl, stir together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, sesame oil, and cornstarch until smooth. Set it nearby for now.
02 -
Slice the chicken breasts into half-inch chunks. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the chicken with flour until coated all over.
03 -
Warm up 2 Tbsp of oil in a big skillet over medium-high heat, making sure the oil spreads evenly. Add half the chicken and let it cook until browned and cooked through on all sides. Move the chicken onto a clean plate and set aside.
04 -
Pour in the last 1 Tbsp of oil, then cook the rest of the chicken the same way. Once done, set all the chicken aside.
05 -
Lower the heat to medium-low and toss some butter into the skillet. Add the minced garlic and stir for about 30 seconds, or until it smells amazing.
06 -
Stir the sauce again, then pour it into the garlic-filled skillet. Mix it well and scrape up the browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 2 minutes so it thickens up nicely.
07 -
Toss the cooked chicken back into the skillet with that shiny sauce. Stir until all the pieces are coated. Cook for another minute or two to heat the chicken completely.
08 -
Take the skillet off the heat, sprinkle on the green onions, and dig in!
# Notes:
01 -
Tender chunks of chicken, smothered in a sweet, tangy, and garlicky glaze.
02 -
The cornstarch makes the sauce thick and perfect for coating every chicken piece.
