Boneless chicken breasts are probably the meat my family eats most often. It’s simple and quick, but it gets old fast. I guess that’s the problem with convenience sometimes. I used to just bread it and we’d dip the pieces in barbecue sauce or hot sauce, but then I started searching for different ideas.
This is a recipe for crunchy honey garlic chicken that has turned out to be a favorite of ours. You have the choice of cooking the chicken on the stove top or in the oven. I’ve tried it both ways and either way comes out really great! The chicken is always so moist and the outside has a nice crunch. The recipe calls for a variety of ingredients that leave the honey garlic flavor to light up your palate. Give it a try, your family will be delighted!
Here’s what you need:
4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups flour
4 tsp salt
4 tsp black pepper
3 tbsp ground ginger
1 tbsp freshly ground nutmeg
2 tsp ground thyme
2 tsp ground sage
2 tbsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne pepper
4 eggs
8 tbsp water
2 tbsp olive oil
3-4 cloves minced garlic
1 cup honey
¼ cup soy sauce (low sodium soy sauce is best)
1 tsp ground black pepper
canola oil for frying
This great recipe was provided by RockRecipes.com. The end result is ANYTHING but boring everyday chicken. That amazingly sweet taste! And then there’s that CRUNCH… Oh wow! This is such an awesome dish! Be sure to head on over to RockRecipes.com now for the full instructions. Enjoy!

Baked Double Crunch Honey Garlic Chicken
The Baked Version!
Double Crunch Honey Garlic Chicken Breasts
Prep time 15 mins, Cook time 15 mins Total time 30 mins
Double Crunch Honey Garlic Chicken Breasts – with over 2 Million views, this super crunchy double dipped chicken breast recipe with an easy honey garlic sauce is our most popular recipe ever.
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
•4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
•2 cups flour
•4 tsp salt
•4 tsp black pepper
•3 tbsp ground ginger
•1 tbsp freshly ground nutmeg
•2 tsp ground thyme
•2 tsp ground sage
•2 tbsp paprika
•1 tsp cayenne pepper
•4 eggs
•8 tbsp water
•2 tbsp olive oil
•3-4 cloves minced garlic
•1 cup honey
•¼ cup soy sauce (low sodium soy sauce is best)
•1 tsp ground black pepper
•canola oil for frying
Instructions
1.Place the chicken breasts between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and using a meat mallet, pound the meat to an even ½ inch thickness. Alternatively, you can slice the breasts by placing them flat on a cutting board and using a very sharp knife to slice them into halves horizontally.
2.Sift together the flour, salt, black pepper, ground ginger, nutmeg, thyme, sage paprika and cayenne pepper. NOTE: This flour and spice dredge mix is sufficient for two batches of this chicken recipe so divide the batch and store ½ in a Ziploc bag in the freezer. I always like to make enough for next time…and there’s always a next time with this recipe.
3.Make an egg wash by whisking together the eggs and water.
4.Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dip the meat in the flour and spice mixture. Dip the breast into the eggwash and then a final time into the flour and spice mix, pressing the mix into the meat to get good contact.
5.Heat a skillet on the stove with about a half inch of canola oil covering the bottom. You will want to carefully regulate the temperature here so that the chicken does not brown too quickly. The thinness of the breast meat practically guarantees that it will be fully cooked by the time the outside is browned. I find just below medium heat works well. I use a burner setting of about 4½ out of 10 on the dial and fry them gently for about 4 or 5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
6.Drain on a wire rack for a couple of minutes before dipping the cooked breasts into the Honey Garlic Sauce. Serve with noodles or rice.
7.To make the Honey Garlic Sauce:
8.In a medium saucepan add the 2 tbsp olive oil and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat to soften the garlic but do not let it brown.
9.Add the honey, soy sauce and black pepper.
10.Simmer together for 5-10 minutes, remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Watch this carefully as it simmers because it can foam up over the pot very easily.
TO MAKE THE OVEN BAKED VERSION
1.Follow the recipe exactly as for the fried version but while you are preparing the chicken, heat a baking sheet in a 425F degree oven. Preheating the pan does 2 things; it prevents the chicken from sticking to the pan and it ensures that the heat from the oven starts going directly into the crust on the chicken to make sure it becomes crispy.
2.Dip all your chicken pieces and coat as instructed. As you finish individual pieces, lay them out on a lightly floured cutting board while you finish getting them all ready.
3.When the pieces are all ready, take the hot pan from the oven and lightly oil the bottom of the baking pan with canola oil or other vegetable oil. Use only enough to coat the bottom of the pan.
4.Working as quickly as possible, transfer the chicken pieces to the oiled pan. Do not crowd the pieces together. They should NOT touch each other or they will steam and not get crispy. Leave at least an inch of space between all pieces.
5.Lightly spray the tops of the chicken pieces with vegetable oil. I recommend that you have a spray bottle filled with canola oil to use in any oven fried recipe for chicken, including this one. A simple pump bottle will do. Spraying the tops helps them start to get crispy in the hot oven too.
6.Maintain the heat at 425 degrees F and place baking sheet in the oven. I use the second lowest rack in my oven.
7.Bake for 15 minutes without opening the door! Take the pan out of the oven and flip all of the chicken pieces over.
8.Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes until the chicken pieces brown nicely and become crispy. Again don’t open the door, maintaining a hot oven is important for this method.
9.Dip the baked pieces in the sauce as usual and serve immediately.
Notes
For a gluten free option, try substituting rice flour for the white flour.
CAULIFLOWER
Ingredients
1 c. all-purpose flour
2 c. panko breadcrumbs
3 large eggs, beaten
1 head cauliflower, chopped into bite-size florets
1/3 c. honey
1/3 c. soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
Juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp. sriracha
1/4 c. water
2 tsp. corn starch
1/4 c. Sliced scallions
Directions
1Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2In a large bowl, combine flour and cauliflower, toss until fully coated. Set up a dredging station: In one bowl, add panko breadcrumbs and in another bowl whisk eggs and add 2 tablespoons water. Dip cauliflower in beaten eggs, then panko until fully coated. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and season generously with salt and pepper. Bake until golden and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.
3Meanwhile, make sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water, until the cornstarch dissolves completely. Set aside. Combine soy sauce, honey, garlic, lime juice and Sriracha in a small saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture reaches a boil, reduce heat and add the cornstarch mixture. Bring to simmer again and cook until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
4Toss cooked cauliflower in sauce until evenly coated. Return the cauliflower to baking sheet and broil for 2 minutes.
5Garnish with scallions.
