Ingredients

For the Chicken:

• Chicken pieces (cut into bite-sized pieces)
• Ginger (a little, minced)
• Garlic (minced)
• Salt (to taste)
• Pepper (to taste)
• Cornstarch (for coating)

For the Sauce:

Butter Honey Garlic (additional, minced)

For Serving:

Cooked white rice Sesame seeds (for garnish) Black sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the bite-sized chicken pieces with a little minced ginger, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken on both sides. Let marinate briefly. Coat the Chicken: Add cornstarch to the marinated chicken and mix thoroughly until all pieces are well coated. Cook the Chicken: Heat oil in a pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cornstarch-coated chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and crispy on all sides, and cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside. Make the Honey Butter Garlic Sauce: In the same pan (or a clean pan), melt butter over medium heat. Add honey and minced garlic. Stir together until well combined and the mixture becomes fragrant. Combine: Add the cooked chicken back to the pan with the honey butter garlic sauce. Toss well to coat all the chicken pieces evenly with the sauce. Serve: Place cooked white rice in a bowl. Top with the honey butter garlic chicken. Sprinkle with sesame seeds (white and/or black) for garnish.

Tips

Make sure the chicken is fully coated with cornstarch for extra crispiness Don’t let the butter and honey mixture burn - keep the heat at medium The sauce should be glossy and coat the chicken nicely
