Christina's Notes
Sauce Thickness: Adjust the sauce consistency by adding more or less cornstarch and water. Use a sprinkle of cornstarch to thicken, or a splash of water to thin.
Marinate the Chicken: Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours, for optimal flavor absorption
Alternate Cooking Methods: Feel free to try to make this panda express recipe in the instant pot, air fryer or slow cooker.
Garnish with Sesame Seeds: Sprinkle with sesame seeds on top of your copycat Chinese takeout honey garlic crispy chicken pieces.
