Time 40m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large eggs, beaten
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ cups panko bread crumbs
3 (5 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup honey
¼ cup soy sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place beaten egg in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Place bread crumbs in another shallow dish.
  • Dunk each piece of chicken in the beaten egg mixture, then coat well with bread crumbs. Transfer breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and repeat the process with remaining chicken.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and no longer pink in the centers, about 20 minutes.
  • While the chicken is baking, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, and Sriracha in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Reduce to heat and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring every so often.
  • Remove cooked chicken from the oven and transfer to a shallow dish. Pour the sauce over top and toss until all chicken pieces are well coated.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds chicken wings, separated into flats and drumettes
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons ground coriander
Kosher salt
15 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar
3/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons berbere spice blend
Chopped fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Pat the wings very dry with paper towels and place in a large bowl. Stir together the baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, coriander and 1 tablespoon salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over the wings and toss well to coat. Arrange the wings, fatty-side down, in a single layer on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake 30 minutes, then turn the wings over and bake until golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 more minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drain the wings on paper towels and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the fried garlic: Smash each clove of garlic, then peel and finely chop. Add the vegetable oil and garlic to a small skillet. Turn the heat to medium and cook until the garlic is lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and continue to cook until the garlic is completely golden, 1 more minute. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve; remove the garlic to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
  • Make the berbere honey glaze: In a small pot over medium-low heat, warm the vinegar and honey until the honey is loose and less viscous. Whisk in the berbere and cook over low heat until evenly distributed and heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Toss the wings with the glaze and fried garlic before serving. Top with chives.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken pieces: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best. If you're using breasts, slice them into 1-inch thick strips. If you're using thighs, trim off any excess fat and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of honey, garlic, soy sauce, and rice vinegar helps to tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Use a high-quality honey: The honey you use in this recipe will have a big impact on the flavor of the chicken. Look for a honey that is dark and flavorful, such as buckwheat honey or wildflower honey.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: When you're baking the chicken, be sure to leave some space between the pieces so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the baking sheet, the chicken will steam instead of bake and won't get as crispy.
  • Cook the chicken until it's golden brown: The chicken is done cooking when it's golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

This crispy baked honey garlic chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is tender and juicy on the inside, and crispy and flavorful on the outside. The honey garlic sauce is sweet, tangy, and slightly sticky, and it pairs perfectly with the chicken. Serve this dish with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
