Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken

Protein Options:

If you want to stick to chicken, we usually use breasts, but thighs are fine too. You can also include any of the following proteins:

Vegetable options:

We think peas go perfectly with honey chicken! That said, feel free to experiment and try any of the following options:

• snow peas
• green beans
• mushroom
• Bell Pepper
• broccoli

Apple cider vinegar:

While apple cider vinegar is growing in popularity, you may not have it on hand—or you may just not like it. For this honey chicken recipe, feel free to substitute regular white vinegar for it.

I am Willow:

You need a little soy sauce to get that unique sticky chicken flavor you want. We always choose low sodium soy sauce so we can better control the sodium content. However, either regular sodium or low sodium salt will work for this recipe.

Spice Grade:

Some cooks like to make this honey chicken recipe extra spicy, while others don’t. You can use extra red pepper flakes if you want to add some extra heat to your dish. You can also have a little hot sauce on the side.

Budget saving tips:

In recipes like this sticky Honey Garlic Chicken that call for only a small amount of chicken stock, stick to making your own broth from broth powder, cubes, or concentrate rather than ready-to-eat shelf-stable broth.
