Honey chicken is not so much about the chicken as it is about the sauce. The traditional ingredients in a honey garlic chicken sauce are soy, ketchup, and honey in equal amounts. I thought that would mix that up a bit and play around with the spices.
What I came up with was an awesome sauce, and tasty, flavorful chicken.
So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How to Make Cold Weather Comfort Food: Honey Garlic Chicken
- Chef’s Note: I tried this dish with skin on/bone in – skin off/bone in, and skin off/bone out… The skin imparts a bit of grease to the sauce and increases the cooking time. Removing the skin and the bone, left the chicken a bit too wimpy for me. Skin off/bone in, gave me the best taste and presentation.
