- 3 lbs Chicken Breasts (boneless skinless)(about 3 Large Breasts)(split in half into cutlets)
- ½ cup Flour (for dredge)
- 1 teaspon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- Salt and Black Ground Pepper (to taste)
- 3 tablespoon Vegetable Oil (to fry the chicken cutlets)
Honey Sriracha Sauce (whisk ingredients together):
- ½ cup Honey
- 4 tablespoons Sriracha Sauce (adjust to taste)
- 4 tablespoons Soy Sauce
- 2 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
- 5 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 teaspoons Sesame Oil
Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create cutlets. In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Lightly dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Cook the Chicken: Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken cutlets in a single layer and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp of 165°F). Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate.
Make the Honey Sriracha Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and sesame oil.
Coat the Chicken: In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and pour in the sauce mixture. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring until slightly thickened. Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, tossing it in the sauce until fully coated.
Serve & Enjoy: Serve hot over rice, noodles, or steamed vegetables. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for extra flavor. Enjoy!
