I have seen this double crunch honey garlic chicken floating around Pinterest for a while now...and I have finally gotten around to trying it out for myself. I made a couple small adjustments to make it my own and it turned out fabulous! It was such a tender, moist chicken with a nice spicy crunch and yummy sauce. Such a simple recipe, you have to try it!
Ingredients: (for the chicken)
- 2 chicken breasts
- flour
- garlic salt
- black pepper
- ground thyme
- ground nutmeg
- cayenne pepper
Mix seasonings together with flour.
Cut your chicken breasts in half, making 4 chicken cutlets. If chicken is still thick, place between plastic wrap and pound thin using a meat mallet. (this makes really tender chicken)
Make an egg wash using 1 to 2 eggs and a splash of milk.
Season chicken with salt and pepper, then dip chicken in spice and flour mixture. Dip chicken in egg wash, and then back into flour mixture once more, coating well.
Heat a skillet to a medium heat with some vegetable oil, covering the bottom.
Fry on both sides about 4 to 5 minutes each, turning once, until you get a nice golden brown color.
Ingredients: (For the sauce)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp ginger (fresh or ground)
- a little crushed red pepper (if you like spicy)
Saute minced garlic in olive oil on medium heat until softened. Add honey, soy sauce, green onions, ginger and crushed red pepper. Simmer together for 5 to 10 minutes.
Pour sauce over chicken and serve.
I served with white rice and garlic roasted cauliflower. It was delicious!
