Delicious recipe honey chicken

Ingredients:

1 lb (450g) chicken thighs or breast, cut into strips

Salt and pepper

1 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive oil)

For the Glaze:

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup honey or brown sugar

2 tbsp rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp ginger, grated

1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (for thickening)

Steps:

Prepare the Chicken:

Season the chicken strips with salt and pepper.

Sear the Chicken:

Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until browned on both sides and nearly cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Make the Glaze:

In the same pan, add soy sauce, honey, vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until it starts to thicken slightly.

Thicken the Sauce:

Add the cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with water) to the sauce, stirring continuously until it thickens to a glaze-like consistency.

Combine and Caramelize:

Return the chicken to the pan and toss in the glaze. Continue cooking for a few minutes, coating the chicken until it’s glossy and caramelized.

Sprinkle with dried herbs if desired and serve
