Ingredients for honey chicken recipe
Chicken Breast : Chop chicken breast Eventually into cubes, if you take large pieces it will extend your cooking time. you can also use chicken thighs but it has more fat than Chicken breast
How to Make Batter for Chinese Chicken
Corn Flour / Corn Starch: It is gluten free so it provide the crispiness. But if you fully use corn flour it will be like glue and not a good batter also if we fry the chicken with corn flour alone it will be white in colour but we need golden brown. So we need to add some all purpose Flour / maida.
All Purpose Flour / Maida : It gives softness to the batter and we have to use less amount of Maida comparatively with corn flour reason to add maida is get golden colour and to activate Baking powder it donât activate alone with Corn flour.
Baking Powder : Baking powder acts with all purpose flour to the make batter puffy and crispiness to the chicken
Sprinkle some Sesame seeds on the Honey chicken before Serving.

This was delicious! I am usually unsure about recipes that call for an ingredient "as needed", but I just added water until the batter looked good. Almost a cup! The chicken was nice and crispy, and the sauce was thick and so easy to throw together. Great recipe!

More sauce please??? It seems to me that the honey part is what makes the chicken so addictive. 2 tbsps??? Really???? I quadrupled the sauce recipe to coat my chicken thoroughly. Came out delicious!
