Spicy Honey Chicken
From Rasamalaysia.com
Ingredients:
4 chicken thighs, bone in
( with skin on)
1 tsp Turmeric powder
1-2 tsp curry powder, any kind
3/4 tsp salt
Water
Cooking oil for deep frying
Combine Turmeric powder, curry powder and salt with a little water to
mix into a thick-ish slurry. Coat the chicken pieces with it evenly and
deep fry the chicken pieces in a large wok or pan until cooked through
and golden brown. Keep aside. Throw off most of the oil from the wok or
pan leaving about 2-3 tablespoons behind.
3 cloves garlic
1 inch fresh ginger
1/2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp chillie paste (either homemade or bought)
3 T tomato ketchup
11/4 T honey
4-5 T water
1 lime, juiced (optional)
1 large onion, sliced into rings
Method:
Pound or grate the garlic and ginger. Saute the paste in the 2-3
tablespoons of oil left behind in the wok or pan until fragrant. Add
tomato sauce, chili paste, curry powder and honey and stir to combine.
Add water to loosen up the mixture. Add salt to taste. Add the deep
fried chicken pieces and stir to mix so that the chicken pieces get
well coated with the sauce. Add the onion rings. Let simmer for about
5-10 minutes until the onion rings soften and the chicken pieces have
absorbed some of the sauce. Add the lime juice. You may add a little
more water if it gets a little dry.
