🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4)

🔥 How to Cook Chicken (Step-by-Step)

  1. Marinate the chicken:
    In a bowl, combine chicken pieces with soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, garlic, black pepper, and sesame oil. Let it marinate for 15–20 minutes.

  2. Heat oil in a pan:
    Use a non-stick or cast-iron skillet. Once hot, add the chicken and cook over medium-high heat.

    Stir-fry the chicken until it’s golden brown and fully cooked through (about 7–10 minutes depending on size).

  4. Garnish and serve:
    Sprinkle spring onion or sesame seeds on top. Serve with steamed rice, noodles, or a side of veggies.

🍴 Serving Suggestions

  • Low-carb option: Serve with cauliflower rice or a fresh green salad.

  • Spicy kick: Add 1 tsp of chili flakes or sliced fresh chili to the marinade.

  • Meal prep: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Perfect for quick lunches!


📌 Final Tips for Cooking Chicken Perfectly

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan — cook in batches if necessary.

  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain juices.

  • Adjust seasoning to your taste — make it sweeter, saltier, or spicier!
