It is undeniable that Chinese Honey Chicken and the American chicken nuggets with honey dipping sauce have one thing in common. It is popular, makes a great finger food and can easily please everyone of all ages, even the most picky eaters, like kids. So, how do you like yours? A drive-thru, buying them frozen from the store, visit your favorite Chinese restaurant, or make it at home with a great and easy recipe?
The answer is simple. Make the Chinese Honey Chicken with my easy recipe!
Just like Sweet and Sour Chicken, Orange Chicken, General Tso’s Chicken and other well known Chinese-American favorites, Chinese Honey Chicken is no different. The recipe is fairly simple using chicken bites, fried, and lightly coated in a sweet honey glaze and garnished with toasted sesame seeds. The essential ingredient to an awesome Chinese Honey Chicken is the texture from the fried batter and the flavoring of the sauce. Up to now, I’m surprised as to why Chinese Honey Chicken is hardly available on any regular Chinese takeout menus. However, Chinese Honey Chicken has indeed gained quite a name, especially at the local Chinese buffet restaurants here in the United States. And when I do go visit one, this is usually one of my favorite picks. Well, I’m a big kid at heart, who, occasionally loves her finger licking good Chinese Honey Chicken.
So, what is your favorite food at the Chinese buffet?

Wow, what a mouthwatering and good looking chinese chicken plate..good photos too!wink!
Sharing and wow, looks good. What I LOVE about the recipes you post is the fact that it doesn’t take rocket science to make them and you don’t have to go to a speicality store to buy anything. A lot of things can be found at any grocery store or at (abet over priced) Whole Foods).
Must be delicious indeed.
My favorite is deep-fried stuff, of course! I like to pretend I like the healthy stuff, steamed or stir-fried, but I would definitely reach out for the deep-fried food when no one’s looking! It is the first time I see batter recipe with addition of oil. Can’t wait to try this one.
Jun – yes, I always add some oil to the frying batter. It makes it easier to fry. :)
Your recipes are so much better than take out–lovely fresh chicken lightly glazed and completely unlike the chicken surrounded with cornstarch glop that describes any of the variations available in my small town. I’m giving this to my grandchildren tonight.
This honey chicken sounds really good!
Dear Editor,
Any bookstore selling your recipe book besides Amazon.com ? I prefer to buy direct from bookstore.
Thank you.
Paul and I made this for dinner tonight, and it turned out nicely. The batter and honey garlic sauce were especially good. We served it with brown rice and broccolini salad.
Hi
I made this the other night and it was delicious! Is there an alternative recipe for making the chicken batter really crispy like in the Chinese restaurants?
Thanks a lot!
I just made this for dinner tonight and it was SO good. My family devoured every last bite – there wasn’t a single bit leftover!!
Extremely easy recipe, if I could mange it as well as I did!! My husband loved it, plus the ingredients are so simple!I’m so glad iv found this page, waiting for a chance to try some of the other recipes!
can I use the black pepper instead of white pepper…. is that okay if they taste of different…?
OK
I am new to your blog (just 3 days ago) after googling hard and love it instantly! Being someone who just moved to Perth (I’m from KL, Msia), and missing mom’s home cook meals, your recipes really a big help to me to cook all by myself and for my hubby too. I tried out this dish and the Shrimps with Curry Leaves (so difficult to find fresh curry leaves in Perth!) last night – what a perfect meal and we love the batter and texture. Easy steps to follow and the taste is fantastic! Thank you! ;) Unfortunately I couldn’t find your recipe book in Perth and it’s not in stock in all major bookstores back in KL. Anyway, can’t wait to try the Sweet and Sour Pork and Chili Crab next! Btw, would you know any other good chili sauce brands other than Lingham’s? We used Lingham’s back in KL too but I just couldn’t find it in Perth. Oh yes, all your recipes are suitable for how many pax? Thanks again and regards.
Any chili sauce is fine. Usually for 2-3 pax.
