Honey Butter Chicken

This is my new obsession:  honey, butter, soy sauce . . .goooooooooood stuff.  It's sweet.  It's savory.  It's addicting.  I've enjoyed this as dictated in the recipe below - and I've also used just the sauce and glazed chicken wings with it.  Also great on carrots.  Just sayin'.

Honey Butter Chicken

Serves 4-6

Ingredients for Chicken:

1.5 Pounds of Boneless Chicken

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

1/4 Teaspoon Black Pepper

2 Eggs

1/4 Cup Flour

1/4 Cup Cornstarch

1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
Oil for Frying

Ingredients for Sauce:
1 Tablespoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce

1 Tablespoon Honey

1/4 Cup Brown Sugar

1/4 Cup Butter, Melted

1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic

Step 1:  Prepare the sauce by adding all ingredients into a bowl.  Mix until combined.  Set aside for later.

Step 2:  Cut up your boneless chicken into strips or bite-sized pieces. Add to a large bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Toss to combine.

Step 3:  Next, add the eggs, flour, cornstarch and baking powder to the chicken bowl.  Mix well with your hands.

Step 4:  In a large deep skillet or dutch oven, add enough cooking oil to make it about an inch deep.  Heat over medium to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 5:  Add the chicken in a single layer.  You may need to do this in batches.  Cook until well browned on all sides.  Remove and drain on paper towels.  Cook any remaining chicken in the same fashion.  Be sure to temp the chicken to make sure it is thoroughly cooked to 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 6:  Once all the chicken is cooked, let's cook up the sauce!  In a clean, large skillet - add the sauce you mixed up in Step 1.  Heat over medium-high heat until it bubbles.  Then, add the cooked chicken and coat in the sauce.  Serve hot.
