Step-by-Step Crispy Honey Garlic Chicken Recipe
- Season chicken thighs with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set chicken aside.
- Place corn starch in a bowl. Mix in a pinch of salt until combined. Coat chicken thighs in the mixture until each piece is evenly coated.
- Heat up oil of your choice in a pan. Place chicken skin side down in the hot pan. Cook on medium-high heat until chicken reaches an internal temp of 165. Should be about 7 minutes skin side down, 5 minutes when flipped. Once it’s golden brown and you’re sure it’s salmonella-free, set the chicken aside.
- Combine minced garlic, sugar, sriracha, soy sauce, honey and water in a bowl. Mix until combined.
- Throw the sauce in the pan you cooked the chicken in. Stirring frequently, cook until the sauce has thickened up.
- Slice your chicken length-wise.
- Plate your chicken as desired. Top with the honey garlic sauce.
