Honey chicken is a favorite of mine, Whenever I feel like eating Chinese food I will fast think about the hot n spicy honey chicken with warm Chinese rice. I am a big fan of tangy and savory dishes. So this Sunday I craved for Chinese food. I had boneless chicken breasts in my kitchen, so I decided to make honey chicken & chicken noodles for our dinner.
So immediately I did research on the internet found this recipe. I rushed to kitchen & I made the chicken fritters & the honey sauce . I just added the sauce to the chicken fritters after chicken noodles was ready and I m telling you it was super delicious, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The taste was amazing and the chicken was soft and tangy exactly what I wanted. U can also take 1 pound frozen popcorn chicken nuggets. But the taste will double if u make the batter & deep fry the chicken at home.
