Preparation:

Step1: Prepare the Chicken

1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and pat them dry with a paper towel.
2. In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Beat the eggs in a separate bowl.

Step2: Coat the Chicken

1. Dip each chicken piece into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
2. Roll the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
3. Place the coated chicken on a plate and repeat for all pieces.

Step3: Fry the Chicken

1. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or wok to 350°F (175°C).
2. Fry the chicken pieces in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
3. Cook each batch for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and crispy.
4. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and place it on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step4: Make the Honey Garlic Sauce

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, add honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
2. Stir the mixture and bring it to a gentle simmer.
3. Mix the cornstarch with water to form a slurry, then pour it into the sauce.
4. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.

Step5: Toss the Chicken in Sauce

1. Transfer the fried chicken into a large mixing bowl.
2. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken and toss to coat evenly.
3. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
