Begin by preparing the chicken.
Mix salt and black pepper with chicken pieces in a bowl.
Coat each piece with all-purpose flour and cornstarch mix for the perfect crust.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F.
Dip chicken pieces in beaten eggs and carefully place them into the hot oil.
Fry until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
Once fried, drain the chicken on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Move on to the sauce while the chicken rests.
In a saucepan, combine honey, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and chili flakes.
Heat over medium heat while stirring.
Add the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce.
Toss the crispy chicken pieces in the thickened sauce until well-coated.
Serve immediately for best results.
