Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture until coated.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
