Honey chicken is a classic Australian-Chinese dish. Deep-fried battered chicken tossed through a sweet and savoury sauce made with honey and soy sauce. Kangaroo Island in South Australia is home to the world's last remaining population of Ligurian bees
Is honey chicken and orange chicken the same?
They start out the same, with battered and fried breast/thigh chunks. However, the sauce is what sets them apart. Orange Chicken has an unmistakable citrus taste, and it's a little spicy thanks to the red pepper flakes. On the other hand, Honey Chicken is more on the sweeter side with hints of ginger and garlic.
