Steps

1 Done	Marinate the Chicken In a bowl, combine the boneless chicken pieces with cornflour, all-purpose flour, egg, soy sauce, ginger-garlic paste, black pepper, and salt. Add a little water to make a smooth batter. The batter should coat the chicken pieces well. Let the chicken marinate for at least 20-30 minutes.
2 Done	Fry the Chicken Heat oil in a deep pan or wok. Fry the marinated chicken pieces in batches until they are golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
3 Done	Prepare the Sauce In a separate pan, heat a tablespoon of oil. Add the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a few seconds. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, and green chilies. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp. In a small bowl, mix the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili sauce, ketchup, and water. Pour this mixture into the pan. Let the sauce simmer for a couple of minutes. If you prefer a thicker sauce, add the cornstarch slurry and cook for another minute until it thickens.
4 Done	Combine Add the crispy fried chicken pieces into the sauce. Toss well so that the chicken is coated in the honey glaze. Stir-fry everything together for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
5 Done	Serve Garnish with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot as an appetizer or with steamed rice. Enjoy your Honey Glazed Dragon Chicken! It's crispy, sweet, tangy, and perfectly balanced with a kick of spice.
