Hello,
Serve Hot with Red wine.
After a tiring day at office and almost another full day
stuck at traffic J,
it makes one feel completely drained, with almost no energy left for cooking.
On such a similar day I prepared this delicacy, and trust me, it's a really
easy and quick dish to prepare and it tastes lip smacking good! It can also be
prepared when guests come over at a short notice. Here goes the recipe, Enjoy,
and let us know how was it?
You can use olive oil, to make this dish healthier.

- Heat oil in a kadai (wok) , deep fry the marinated chicken pieces until they are brown.
- Take a container and put the fried chicken pieces on a tissue paper, so that the extra oil is soaked out.
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a kadai(wok), add minced garlic, lemon juice, soya sauce, sugar and cornstarch.
- Cook until it becomes thick, add the fried pieces of chicken, spring onion, honey and saute for 3-5 minutes so that the chicken pieces are coated with the sauce properly. ( It should not be overcooked so that the chicken remains crispy).
