One of our favorite things to eat is an easy chicken stir fry with a delicious sauce, over rice. They are usually so quick and easy to make with tons of great flavor. This Sticky Chicken is just like that. It reminds you of something you would get from an Asian inspired food stall at the mall, only a million times better.
What is Sticky Chicken
This Sticky Chicken recipe is an Asian inspired stir fry that everyone will love. It has a very simple sauce recipe that combines soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic, honey, ginger, and chili paste for a delicious flavor.
Spice Level
This recipe gets it’s spice from the chili paste. You guys know how much I love chili paste from my Noodle Stir Fry and my Chicken Lettuce Wraps. It keeps in your refrigerator forever and is good in so many things. You will note that the recipe calls for 1 tablespoon. That gave this recipe a pretty decent kick. If you are averse to spice, I recommend you cutting that in half and tasting the sauce to see if you’d like to add more.
Buying Ginger
This recipe calls for fresh ginger. You have two buying options. You can buy a stick of ginger root and grate it, or you can buy a tube of pre grated ginger. The tube of ginger is generally more expensive, but it is so convenient that we often go that way. Additionally, then we don’t end up wasting a big piece of ginger root. You can find it with the produce in your grocery store.
