1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ cup cold water

1 egg
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cold water
½ cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
peanut oil for frying
½ tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Mix honey, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, Sriracha sauce, and sesame oil together in a medium bowl.
  • Combine cold water, cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl; mix well. Add to honey sauce mixture and mix well. Set aside until needed.

Fry in batches until chicken pieces are golden brown and no longer pink in the centers, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Check oil temperature between batches.
  • Pour honey sauce mixture into a large skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, 3 to 4 minutes. Add all chicken pieces to the sauce; turn to coat. Sprinkle on sesame seeds.

2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon minced garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Start roasting chicken as per your normal preferred method, don't glaze the chicken at the start because the skin will burn.
  • Brush the glaze over the chicken when there is 30-45 minutes cooking time remaining. I normally do it with 45 minutes for a fairly dark crispy skin but you may prefer 30 for a lighter colour.

ROAST HONEY SESAME CHICKEN

This recipes sounds so good and the photo in Recipe+ magazine make look even better. Times are estimated and DO NOT included 20 minutes marinating time. They also suggest that you can replace hoisin sauce with plum sauce. You could also use 2 small twin pack chicken but cooking time will vary. For a quick gravy you could mix powdered gravy with boiling water and minced garlic cloves. If dutch carrots are not available use regular carrots and cut into quarters lenghtwise.

Tips:

  • To make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the marinade, use a large bowl or zip-top bag and massage the marinade into the chicken pieces.
  • For a crispier chicken, roast it on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. This will allow the air to circulate around the chicken and help it cook evenly.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the chicken for the full 30 minutes, you can still make this recipe. Just reduce the marinating time to 15 minutes.
  • If you want a saucier chicken, add 1/4 cup of chicken broth to the marinade before roasting. This will help create a flavorful sauce that you can serve over the chicken.
  • Garnish the chicken with sesame seeds and green onions before serving for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Roast honey sesame chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the honey sesame sauce is the perfect finishing touch. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
