Honey Chicken

 

One of my favorite restaurant dishes is getting my healthy makeover! This Honey Chicken is my lighter take on the popular PF Chang’s classic, delivering all the sweet and savory flavor but with less oil and fewer sugary ingredients. The result is a delicious, high protein meal that satisfies takeout cravings while supporting your health goals. Bonus: you likely already have these simple ingredients stocked in your kitchen and ready to go!

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 1/3 cup egg whites
  • 1/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Coconut oil cooking spray
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1–2 tsp cornstarch plus 2 tbsp water (slurry for thickening)

 

Instructions:
Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees. Toss chicken in egg whites. Mix cornstarch, garlic powder, salt and pepper separately, then coat chicken pieces. Spray air fryer with coconut oil cooking spray, then add chicken to the tray and air fry at 400°F for 10–12 minutes (flip or shake halfway).

While the chicken cooks, in a pan, sauté garlic and ginger for 1 minute. Add honey, coconut aminos/soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil. Stir in slurry and simmer until thickened.

Toss crispy chicken in sauce right before serving with brown rice and steamed broccoli.
