Honey Garlic Chicken

Honey Garlic Chicken is a delightful fusion of sweet and savory flavors, featuring tender chicken glazed with a rich honey garlic sauce. This Kosher dish is perfect for a cozy dinner, bringing the taste of Chinese cuisine right to your table.

Ingredients

• Chicken thighs - 300 grams, boneless and skinless
• Honey - 3 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons (ensure it's kosher)
• Garlic - 4 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Vegetable oil - 1 tablespoon
• Cornstarch - 1 tablespoon
• Water - 2 tablespoons
• Green onions - 2, sliced for garnish
• Sesame seeds - 1 teaspoon for garnish

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and water to create the marinade.
2. Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Let it sit for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and add it to the skillet.
4. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned and cooked through.
5. While the chicken is cooking, in a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry.
6. Once the chicken is cooked, pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring it to a simmer.
7. Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
8. Remove from heat and serve the honey garlic chicken hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
