Prepare the chicken by rinsing it under running water. Proceed to slice the chicken into appropriately sized pieces.
Season the chicken by sprinkling salt and pepper over it. Ensure that the chicken has been dried using paper towels.
Heat a pan and add a moderate amount of oil for frying. Place the chicken in the pan, taking care not to add excessive oil.
Fry the chicken for a brief duration, as it does not require extensive cooking. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pan.
In the same pan with the remaining oil, continue with the next steps of the recipe.
In a separate bowl, combine honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Thoroughly mix these ingredients together.
Place all the chicken in a cooking pan and drizzle the honey mixture over the partially cooked chicken. Allow the chicken to simmer in the thick honey sauce, allowing it to absorb and enhance the flavours.
Cover the pan with a lid and let the sauce-drizzled chicken cook for 30 minutes. This covered simmering process will ensure optimal results.
Meanwhile, prepare the walnuts for the chicken by grinding them in a food processor until properly crushed.
After the designated 30 minutes, remove the lid and sprinkle the crushed walnuts over the simmered chicken.
Lower the heat and cook for an additional 10 minutes without the lid. This uncovered cooking will allow the sauce to thicken and achieve the desired consistency.
Your Honey Walnut Chicken is now ready to be served. Use it as a side dish with cooked rice, and serve finely diced green onions alongside the salad.
