Instructions
-
Prepare the chicken:
Pat chicken pieces dry and season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, beat the egg. In another bowl, mix flour and cornstarch.

Coat the chicken:
Dip each chicken piece in the egg, then dredge in the flour-cornstarch mixture until fully coated.
-
Fry the chicken:
Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry chicken in batches for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
-
Make the glaze:
In a clean skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in honey, soy sauce, and D’Bocas Hot Sauce. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.

Coat and serve:
Add fried chicken pieces to the glaze and toss gently to coat. Serve hot over steamed rice or with stir-fried vegetables.
