Description

A deliciously sticky and sweet dish, perfect for any occasion, easy to prepare and great over rice.


Ingredients

  • 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 110g (1/3 cup) honey
  • 80ml (1/3 cup) chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes


Instructions

  1. Pat chicken thighs dry, cut into 1-inch pieces, and season with salt and pepper. Toss with cornflour until lightly coated.
  2. Heat vegetable oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add garlic, honey, chicken stock, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and chilli flakes to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens.
  4. Return chicken to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the sauce. Simmer for another 1-2 minutes.
  5. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately over boiled rice.
