Honey Ginger Garlic Chicken Food

BAKED HONEY GINGER CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Rub oil, salt, ginger and garlic into chicken breast and let chicken sit at room temperature for 10 minutes (up to 20 minutes) before baking. For best flavor, dry brine in fridge for up to 6 hours before letting rest 20 minutes at room temperature and then baking.
• While chicken rests, preheat the oven to 450 F.
• Bake chicken on parchment paper lined baking sheet for 15-18 minutes (or until internal temp reaches 160).
• While chicken bakes, bring glaze ingredients to a simmer in a sauce pan, then turn heat to low and cook until reduced into a glaze, stirring occasionally for about 12 minutes.
• When chicken is 5 minutes from being finished, brush a little of the glaze over the chicken and finish in the oven. Let the meat sit for 5 minutes before slicing and serving with more honey glaze on top.
• Enjoy!

BAKED ASIAN-STYLE HONEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• To Marinate: Arrange chicken pieces in a 9x13 inch baking dish. In a small bowl combine the onion, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and honey; mix together and spoon mixture over chicken. Cover dish and refrigerate to marinate for 1 hour, turning pieces once.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bake chicken at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Turn pieces over and top with green onion, then continue baking for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is tender and cooked through and juices run clear. Serve immediately.

HONEY AND GINGER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet or wok over medium heat. Add chicken cubes, 1/4 cup honey, and ginger. Cook and stir until chicken is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add bell peppers, onion, broccoli, pineapple, and remaining 1/2 cup honey. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until vegetables are tender, 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

HONEY GINGER GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Layer the chicken in the bottom of a 5 - 6 qt slow cooker.
• In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, preserves, hoisin sauce, oil, garlic, ginger, onion and red pepper flakes. Pour over chicken. Cover slow cooker and cook on low 4-5 hours.
• Using tongs or a slotted spoon or skimmer, remove chicken from sauce to a plate. Transfer sauce to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and allow to reduce slightly.
• Meanwhile, using two forks, shred chicken, discarding bones and cartilage as you go.
• When the chicken is shredded, whisk the cornstarch into the cold water. Add to the sauce and simmer until thickened. Add chicken and stir to coat chicken well. Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds; serve over steamed white rice.

AIR FRYER HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into cubed chunks, then toss in a bowl with Cornstarch or Potato Starch. Use enough to coat the chicken evenly.
• Place in the Air Fryer and cook according to your Air Fryer Manual for chicken. (Note - I cooked ours on 390* for 24 Minutes, 12 minutes on each side. Chicken Breast will not cook as long.)
• While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, garlic, and ginger.
• Bring this to a low boil, then whisk in the cornstarch until the sauce is thickened. (Note, if it's not thick enough, add in additional cornstarch until nicely thickened.)
• Set aside.
• Once the chicken is cooked, mix it into the sauce and warm up. This can be done in a small skillet or the saucepan, simply coat the chicken with the sauce. It will be a sticky texture sauce.
• Serve the chicken over the cooked rice with green beans.
• Garnish with green onion.

HONEY GINGER CHICKEN STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Make sauce by whisking together garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
• Toss chicken with cornstarch until evenly coated.
• In a wok or large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and let cook for a moment without stirring until browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Give the chicken a stir and pour in about 3 Tbsp of sauce (it doesn't have to be super precise, so you can just estimate it by tipping in about a quarter of the sauce). Cook chicken in sauce, stirring frequently until chicken is well coated and looks sticky with sauce.
• Pour in the remaining sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce reduces slightly and chicken is cooked, 4 to 5 minutes more.
• Stir in the 2 stalks of green onions.
• Serve chicken over rice with some more sesame seeds and green onions on top.

HONEY GINGER GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oil in the wok.
• Add onion and stir-fry until golden.
• Add chicken and stir-fry until browned.
• Add the garlic, ginger, honey, fish sauce, soy sauce, and five-spice powder.
• Toss to combine.
• Cook until chicken is nicely glazed and heated through.
• Place on serving platter and garnish with cilantro sprigs.

HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Note: Preparing/cooking the chicken and measuring out the sauce brings you 85% of the way to completion, it goes very fast after that.
• Slice the chicken into 2-3 thinner slices. Pound with a meat tenderizer if needed, the chicken will plump up more when cooked. Aim for ½ inch thick slices. Pat the chicken completely dry.
• Combine all sauce ingredients except for the cornstarch and set aside.
• Season each side of the chicken with salt/pepper. Dredge in flour mixture and tap off excess.
• Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add 2-3 pieces of chicken, leaving room around each. Sauté for 4-5 minutes per side, until a golden brown crust has developed. Remove and set aside. Repeat with the remaining 3 pieces of chicken.
• Pro Tips: Make slight adjustments to the heat, (up or down), as needed during cooking. Add an additional splash of olive oil if needed throughout cooking. Try to leave the chicken undisturbed as it cooks to get a nice crusty sear.
• Wipe excess oil from the pan but leave the chicken remnants. This is called "fond" and it will give the sauce more flavor.
• Add the sauce mixture (minus the cornstarch) to the skillet. Add the vegetables and heat over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until the broccoli and peppers are softened.
• Bring to a gentle boil. Combine cornstarch with ¼ cup cold water and stir until well-combined.
• Slowly add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce, stirring continuously, until desired thickness is obtained. You don't have to add it all.
• Reduce heat to low. Add the chicken back and spoon the sauce on top. Let the chicken heat through for about 5 minutes. Serve with rice and garnish with green onions and red pepper flakes!

HONEY-GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Put wings in a rectangular baking pan and cook in the oven at 350 degrees F until nicely browned and getting crisp. Mix soy sauce, honey, water, garlic and ginger together in a small bowl and pour over hot wings. Cook until wings are well coated with the sauce. The sauce will become very thick and stick to the wings.

HONEY-GINGER CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice and zest, tamari, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, scallions, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Reserve 3/4 cup of the marinade for later use. Pour the remaining marinade into a 2-gallon ziptop bag. Add the chicken and seal the bag, pressing out as much air as possible; massage to distribute the marinade. Marinate, refrigerated, for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
• Remove the chicken wings from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the wings skin-side down on the baking sheet and spoon the marinade from the bag over the wings. Cook for 20 minutes, then flip the wings, baste with the pan drippings, rotate the pan and cook until the honey has caramelized and the skin is a dark amber, an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
• Pour the reserved 3/4 cup marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the liquid is thick and syrupy and turns into a glaze, about 4 minutes. Coat the wings with the thickened marinade. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with lime zest.
