Ingredients
For The Meat
  • 1 pound Chicken (boneless thighs or breast)
  • 2 Eggs (large, beaten)
  • 1/2 cup Cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (unseasoned)
For The Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Soy Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 2 Garlic Cloves (minced)
  • 5 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 3/4 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
  • 3/4 tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons Sesame Oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame (optional)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Making The Chicken
  • Cut the boneless chicken into small pieces.
  • Mix the breadcrumbs and cornstarch in a bowl and set it aside.
  • Beat the eggs in another bowl. Then, dip the chicken cubes into the eggs, and then into the panko mixture. Make sure the chicken is well coated.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 380F (190C) and spray the basket with cooking oil. Once hot, place the chicken pieces into the air fryer (in one layer).
  • Air fry them for 16-18 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking. When done, remove it from the air fryer.
Making The Sauce
  • Place a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add all the sauce ingredients and whisk them together until the mixture boils.
  • Reduce the heat so the mixture continues simmering. Let it thicken – it should take about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the sauce from the heat and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the meat to a large bowl. Pour the sauce on top of it and toss until well covered.
