My wife brought home some "popcorn" sized chicken and it was drizzled in a white sauce to die for. - Makes a great appetizer - personally I would step it up and do 11 minutes in a commercial oil pressure cooker as Chick Fill A does. 475° I think. KFC is at a lower temp.

Ingredients:
[*]1/2 cup vegetable oil
[*]1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
[*]1 cup all-purpose flour
[*]1 cup buttermilk
For the sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more, to taste
- We added butter.
Directions:
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Working one at a time, dredge chicken in flour, dip into buttermilk, then dredge in flour again, pressing to coat.
- Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet, 3 or 4 at a time, and cook until evenly golden and crispy, about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water; set aside.
- In a small saucepan over medium high heat, combine honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sesame oil and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and stir in cornstarch mixture until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes; set aside.
- Serve chicken immediately, drizzled with honey glaze
