Ingredients
- Chicken Breast

- Eggs
- Panko Breadcrumbs
- Honey
- Soy Sauce
- Garlic
- Salt and Pepper
- Ranch Dressing
- Oil for Frying
Instructions
1. Begin by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
2. Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
3. Coat the chicken pieces in flour, dip them in the egg, and then coat them in the panko breadcrumbs.
4. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat about 1-2 inches of oil to 350°F (175°C).
5. Carefully add the breaded chicken pieces to the hot oil and fry them for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
6. Transfer the crispy chicken bites to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
7. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic.
8. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
9. Transfer the crispy chicken to a large bowl and pour honey garlic sauce over it.
10. Gently toss to ensure the bites are evenly coated.
Notes
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to maintain oil temperature.
Use a deep-fry thermometer to ensure oil is at 350°F (175°C).
For a spicy variation, add cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the sauce.
For a healthier option, bake the chicken at 400°F (200°C) for 18-20 minutes.
