Sparkling Chicken

Ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 cup beer
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
• Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

1. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beer, honey, soy sauce, and garlic until combined.
3. Dip the chicken strips into the flour mixture, then into the beer mixture, and then back into the flour mixture.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken strips and fry for about 4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
6. To make the glaze, in the same skillet, add the honey, soy sauce, and garlic and cook until the mixture reduces and thickens.
7. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat with the glaze. Serve immediately.
