Ingredients
  • 1 cup oil (peanut, canola or vegetable)
  • ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp. ground thyme
  • 1 tsp. oregano
  • ½ tsp. smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp. red cayenne pepper
  • 1 lb. chicken breasts, boneless & skinless cut into chunks or strips
  • Salt & pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup honey
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes (optional---use if you like a little heat)
Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat combine honey, garlic and soy sauce.
  2. Meanwhile whisk together cornstarch and water. Add to honey mixture and heat stirring constantly until thickened. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, thyme, oregano, paprika and cayenne pepper. Transfer to a shallow dish big enough to coat chicken chunks or strips.
  4. Lightly beat eggs.
  5. Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Coat chicken piece by piece in flour, then dip quickly into egg, recoat in flour then set aside on a platter until all pieces have been well coated.
  7. Heat oil in a flat-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Once hot fry chicken pieces in batches (several can be cooked together but don’t over crowd the pan). Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, remove and place on a paper lined plate to absorb excess oil; keep warm.
  8. Toss with honey garlic sauce or serve as a dipping sauce if preferred.
  9. Serve & enjoy.
