Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Prepare two shallow dishes: one with the beaten eggs seasoned with salt and pepper, and another with the panko breadcrumbs. (2 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Dunk each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dredge it in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Place the breaded chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken. (15 minutes)

04

Step
20 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is cooked through and beautifully golden brown, about 20 minutes. (20 minutes)

05

Step
8 mins

While the chicken bakes, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and Sriracha in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it thicken slightly, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes. (7 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and place it in a bowl. Pour the honey-garlic sauce over the chicken and toss gently until each piece is evenly coated in the glistening glaze. (3 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the panko breadcrumbs.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) during the last minute of simmering.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.

    I tried this with gluten-free panko and it turned out great! A perfect gluten-free alternative.

    The chicken stayed crispy even after being coated in the sauce - amazing!

    Next time I'll try adding a bit of ginger to the sauce for an extra layer of flavor.

    Great recipe! I served it with brown rice and steamed broccoli for a complete meal.

  • Rylee Keebler

    These were so much better than any chicken nuggets I've had before!

  • Freddy Dickinson

    A little too spicy for my kids, I'll reduce the Sriracha next time.

  • Reagan Wisozkbraun

    The honey-garlic sauce is absolutely addictive. I doubled the recipe just for the sauce!
