Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb chicken thighs boneless skinless
- 3 tablespoon potato starch
- 3 tablespoon all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoon neutral oil for pan frying
- 8 cloves of garlic minced
- 2 stalks green onion green and white parts seperated
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- ½ cup chicken stock sub water and chicken bouillon
- 3 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- Green onion green part
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the sauce by combining chicken stock, honey, rice vinegar, dark soy sauce, and cornstarch in a bowl and set aside.
- Pat dry the chicken thighs, then mix potato starch, flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper on a plate and coat the chicken evenly.
- Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until both sides are golden brown, about 7 minutes each, then remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté the minced garlic, the white parts of green onion, and red chili flakes for about 3 minutes until the garlic turns golden.
- Pour in the prepared sauce and cook for about 1 minute until it thickens.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for 5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked and glazed with the sauce.
- Serve garnished with green onion tops and sesame seeds alongside your favorite vegetables or steamed rice.
Notes
- Make sure everything is prepped and ready before cooking to keep the process smooth since it goes quickly
- Lightly coat the chicken to create a subtle crust rather than a heavy breading
- Consider doubling the sauce recipe to have extra for later use
- You may also air fry or bake the chicken until crispy if you prefer to cook it differently before adding to the sauce
