Creating Crispy Chili Chicken with Sweet Honey Sauce is straightforward. Follow these steps to ensure a delicious result:
In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with buttermilk. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare Coating: In another bowl, mix flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder.
Coat Chicken: Remove marinated chicken from buttermilk and coat each piece with the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour.
Heat Oil: In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil is hot enough for frying.
Fry Chicken: Carefully place coated chicken pieces in the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding, for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Drain Oil: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Prepare Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, and chili paste. Heat over low heat until well combined and slightly thickened.
Toss Chicken: In a large bowl, toss the crispy chicken with the honey sauce until fully coated.
Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the chicken for added flavor and presentation.
