Who needs carry-out for dinner when you can create Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken at home for family dinner. This is one flavor loaded dish!
Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken
Are you ready for a delicious new dinner recipe? I am so excited to once again be able to participate with an incredible bunch of women and fellow awesome bloggers in the Winter Edition of Freaky Friday.
Don’t know what Freaky Friday is? It is a blog hop where each participant is assigned to another blog. You are to choose a recipe from your assigned blog, make it, eat it, love it, photograph it, and then blog it.
Then on the chosen Friday, it is revealed who had who’s blog and you hop around from blog to blog looking and drooling over all the yummy foods. It is a blast!
Previously when we participated we made these Mexican Wedding Cookies, Breakfast Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies (which have become a family favorite), some Dulce de Leche Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches, and this Lemon Crumb Loaf.
This time I was assigned to Brandi over at Aunt Bee’s Recipes. Go check her out she has some amazingly yummy food over there. It took me forever to finally pick just one recipe to make, although I have printed 12 recipes from her blog that I have now made 3 of and cannot wait to make the rest.

Seriously! Look at this Loaded Macaroni Salad, or mmm these Pecan Pie Bars are to die for, or you know you want to try this Slow Cooker Cheesecake. Like I said the possibilities are endless and I had a hard time choosing just one. But finally, her Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken grabbed my attention. It did not disappoint and instantly became a family favorite.
I love the idea of making Chinese dishes at home. Dishes that taste just like you’d get at the restaurant but usually, they kinda flop for me and just do not come out the same.
This Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken was even BETTER than I have had at the restaurant. I made ours in two levels of spicy because my youngest is a weirdo and hates anything remotely spicy (seriously, he complains that black pepper is too spicy).
I sampled both and they were soooo good. I did not make the fried rice but look forward to making it (I cheated and had a premade bag).
If you are looking for a yummy Chinese dish to make at home try this Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken.

YUM! We haven’t been able to find a good Chinese restaurant near us, so I’m always looking for “make your own take-out” recipes. This one definitely sounds like a winner!

I love Asian inspired dishes, especially with a little kick. I can’t wait to try this one! I also have a blog, and would love any input. Thanks for a great recipe!
Barbara
I made this tonight and it was very good. It was a tad spicier than I wanted so next time I will use 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes instead of a full teaspoon. But it was so good.
Tracey
I made this tonight and it was amazing!!! Actually looked like the picture to.
Sarah
I just made this and it was delicious! I didn’t realize i was out of chili flakes. But I used a chili infused spicy honey and it came out so good.
I didn’t quite know how long to fry the chicken, but i suppose that depends on the size cuts.
I also omitted the rice wine vinegar since I didn’t have that either, just in case anyone is wondering if it’s crucial since it isn’t.
This method could easily make orange chicken also. I will try that next.
Larissa
But I did not see rice vinegar in the recipe. When do we have to add it? Thanks!
Diane
Just made the Spicy Honey Garlic Chicken – It was fabulous not one piece left! Highly recommended used all ingredients as listed – you will not be disappointed, Thanks for sharing
Cristina
Is it possible to use an air fryer to fry the chicken?
Beck & Bulow
