Sizzling Honey Chili Crisp Chicken
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons chili crisp
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 3 green onions, sliced
Instructions
1. Prepare the Chicken:
- Pat the chicken thigh pieces dry with a paper towel to ensure they brown properly.
2. Create the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine chili crisp, honey, and soy sauce. Mix thoroughly until the honey is fully incorporated.
3. Heat the Pan:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the chili crisp to the pan and allow it to melt and coat the bottom evenly.
4. Cook the Chicken:
- Add the chicken pieces to the hot pan. Spread them out in a single layer. Allow the chicken to sear undisturbed for about 3 minutes until the undersides develop a golden-brown crust.
5. Toss and Sauté the Chicken:
- Stir and flip the chicken pieces to cook on all sides. Continue cooking until the chicken is fully cooked, about an additional 5 minutes.
6. Add the Sauce:
- Lower the heat to medium and pour the chili crisp, honey, and soy sauce mixture over the chicken. Stir to coat all the pieces evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and glazes the chicken.
7. Finish with Sesame Seeds and Green Onions:
- Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the chicken and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
8. Garnish and Serve:
- Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, garnish with the sliced green onions, and serve hot.
