CHINESE HONEY CHICKEN
Crisp fried chicken strips in a sweet sauce. Despite the name there is no honey in this recipe. I have not yet tried it, it is for an ISO request on the recipe board. Note: When the recipe was first posted, there were an additional 2 Tablespoons of salt listed in the batter. This was a typo and never should have been there. Several reviewers alerted me to the error, and the extra salt listing has been removed.

Steps:
- MIX THE BATTER INGREDIENTS together in a medium-sized bowl; it should be thick and smooth.
- Allow the batter to sit, covered for at least 30 minutes.
- Combine the chicken with the batter.
- Heat a wok or large deep skillet until it is hot and add the oil for frying.
- When the oil is barely smoking, deep-fry the chicken for 2 minutes or until the batter is just firm.
- You should do this in several batches.
- Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- TO MAKE SAUCE: Heat a small saucepan; when it is hot, add the oil, ginger and garlic, and stir for 30 seconds.
- Then add the rest of the sauce ingredients and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Keep warm.
- Reheat the oil in the wok until it is very hot, but not smoking.
- Deep-fry the chicken again until it is golden and crisp, about 1 minute.
- Remove and drain, place on a warm platter, drizzle with the sauce (and sprinkle with the optional toasted sesame seeds if desired) and serve immediately.
