Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cutting boneless skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chili sauce, honey, minced garlic, and soy sauce. Stir well until fully blended.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Once marinated, arrange the chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Switch the oven to broil and cook the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.
  7. Remove the chicken bites from the oven and sprinkle finely chopped green onions over the top before serving.

Notes

Allowing the chicken to marinate overnight maximizes flavor absorption. Gradually add chili sauce to control spice levels. Always check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) before serving.
