How to make Honey Garlic Chicken bites
To coat the chicken cubes, make sure to mix in the cornstarch, salt, and pepper thoroughly.
(cornstarch gives the chicken bites a slight crust so the sauce sticks to it better!)
Then add garlic, lemon juice, chicken stock, and honey.
Cook the chicken in a hot skillet with butter, then add the seasonings. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes or until no longer pink.
Sprinkle parsley and red chili pepper flakes for added flavor.
Serve these chicken bites with rice, noodles or other carbs, with steamed veggies on the side.
