Sriracha Honey Chicken
A delicious and easy recipe for sticky Sriracha honey chicken, perfect for a weeknight meal.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
- 0.5 cup sriracha
- 0.5 cup honey
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
For Serving (Optional)
- cooked rice
- sesame seeds
- chopped green onions
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a medium bowl, whisk together sriracha, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the sauce. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken (reserve the sauce) and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour the reserved sauce over the chicken in the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken, about 3-5 minutes.
- Serve the Sriracha honey chicken hot over cooked rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
Notes
This recipe is very versatile. You can adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spiciness.
