I can’t believe its been a year we started MFBchallenge!Its 12th month of the challenge and this time we need to select any one of the previous challenges,that means we will go back to our previous 11 challenges and choose one that you have either missed or would want to repeat.So i thought to cover it up with the missed challenge and selected cooking with honey and cooking with meat(2 in 1)!That’s 2 different challenges but i come up with kids friendly honey ginger chicken.
Back to today’s recipe it’s a crispy fried chicken coated with sweet,spicy and gingery sauce!We are not a great fan of sweet taste in our savory dishes.But kids loved it.Very simple to prepare and a keeper for kids parties!If you like sweet and spicy combination together do give this a try!
I liked the crispy texture with tender and succulent ginger flavored chicken.But hubby was not so fond of !Left over packed to Kashif ‘s tiffin box!Over to the recipe.
