Instructions

Making Spicy Sweet Chicken Diablo is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to create this incredible dish:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. This helps ensure even cooking.
2. Season the Chicken: In a bowl, combine salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Toss the chicken pieces in this spice mixture until well coated.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 6-7 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
5. Prepare the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha sauce (if using).
6. Add the Sauce: Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Stir to coat the chicken evenly and bring the mixture to a simmer.
7. Thicken the Sauce: Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly while continuously stirring.
8. Garnish: Once the sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the chicken.
9. Serve: Transfer the chicken to a serving dish, ensuring to coat it well with the sauce.

This simple yet delicious process will guide you in creating a dish that is both satisfying and full of flavor.
