Ingredients

• 8 chicken thighs (skinless and boneless)
• 2tbsp cornstarch
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 4 cloves minced garlic
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/3 chicken stock
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parley
• 1/2 tsp chili flakes
• boiled rice

Instructions

1. Cut up chicken into bite sized pieces.
2. Please chicken in a bowl. Add seasonings and cornstarch. Toss chicken until fully coated.
3. Heat oil in large skillet over high heat.
4. Add in the chicken and cook on one side until golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Flip chicken and cook for another 2 minutes.
5. Add butter to the pan and let it melt. Then add in garlic and stir. Turn down heat to medium so the garlic doesn't burn.
6. Next make the sauce. Combine the honey, chicken stock, rice vinegar, and soy sauce in a bowl and stir,
7. Add sauce to skillet. Turn up the heat and bring to a boil. Once at a boil, reduce hit and allow sauce to simmer until sauce reduces and thickens (about 4-5 minutes). Add the chicken and make sure it is cooked through and is no longer pink in the middle. (I cooked my chicken all the way when I put it in the pan in step 4).
8. Sprinkle the chopped parsely and chili flakes. Serve over boiled rice.

Overall, I really enjoyed the taste of the chicken in this honey garlic chicken recipe. I would definitely make this again.
