  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 2 tbsp flour or cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp oil

  1. Toss chicken in flour or cornstarch.
  2. Sear chicken in oil until golden, then remove.
  3. Sauté garlic and ginger.
  4. Add honey, soy sauce, and vinegar.

Notes

Do not overcook the sauce; it thickens quickly and can burn due to the honey content.
