Sticky honey chicken with rice
Serves 4
Method
- Heat the ghee in a large, deep pan over a medium-high heat. Place the flour and buttermilk in two separate shallow bowls.
- One at a time, dredge chicken pieces in the flour, then in the buttermilk, then back into the flour.
- Working in batches of 5-6 pieces, c ook the coated chicken in the ghee until golden brown and crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper.
- In a small cup, combine the cornflour with the water.
- In a small saucepan over a medium-high heat, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, cider vinegar and sesame oil. Bring to boil. Reduce to a simmer and stir in the cornflour mixture. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Remove from the heat. Stir the cooked chicken through the glaze to coat and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately with rice.
