Sticky Chicken is baked in a deliciously different homemade honey soy sauce barbecue sticky sauce. We like to serve it over yellow rice and spoon extra sauce on top for the rice to soak in. You’ve got to taste this sauce! It’s like no other. 

If I had to pick the one supper my family enjoys most these days, it’s Sticky Chicken. In fact, when we have our special family supper on Friday nights, 50% of the time, Sticky Chicken is on the menu just because I like how excited everyone gets when they know it’s coming. I’ve even made a promise to our bonus daughter (Katy’s best friend) that I will never have Sticky Chicken without inviting her over – and so far she has never missed an opportunity to be here for this. I make sure to cook extra to send home to her family, too. Seriously, this is THAT special of a meal at my house. 

The original recipe requires bone-in, skin-on chicken. The skin was key for all that wonderful sticky sauce to have something to stick to. I’ve since modified the recipe to make it work with boneless skinless chicken breasts because: A. They are everyones favorite. and B. They are easier (and often cheaper) to find these days. I always have some in my freezer. 

You’ll need: Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, Honey, Brown Sugar, Ketchup, Soy Sauce, Garlic Powder, and All Purpose Flour*. 

*Self rising will do just fine if that is what you have. 

To make the sauce, simply place all of the ingredients in a 2 cup measuring cup and stir well. Place this in the microwave or a small sauce pot.  If using the microwave: Heat for one minute and stir. Repeat in thirty second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and well blended. If using a sauce pot: Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until it becomes hot enough to blend together well, with no lumps. 

Pour just a bit of this wonderful sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Spread to coat the bottom of the dish. 

Place flour in a shallow bowl and just press each side of each chicken breast into that so that it is lightly coated. 

Place these in your baking dish. 

Spoon remaining sauce over the top. Place in 350 degree oven, uncovered. After 30 minutes, remove from oven and carefully flip chicken pieces over. Spoon sauce from baking dish over them again and return to oven for another 15-30 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked. Baste it once more during this time.

Remove from oven and baste again (without returning to oven). Allow to sit for five minutes and baste once more before serving.

Excellent served with yellow rice or mashed potatoes so you can spoon some of that delicious sauce over them! 

I hope your family and friends love this as much as mine does. 

Ingredients

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup honey

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

• In medium bowl or large measuring cup (I use a 4 cup measuring cup) stir together ketchup, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, and garlic powder until well combined.

If using a sauce pot: Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until it becomes hot enough to blend together well, with no lumps. 

• Place enough sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish to be able to spread it around and cover the bottom.

• Place 1 cup flour in a shallow bowl. Dip each chicken breast into flour on both sides and place in the baking dish top side down. Spoon remaining sauce over, making sure to coat the chicken.

• Place in 350 degree oven, uncovered. After 30 minutes, remove from oven and carefully flip chicken pieces over. Spoon sauce from baking dish over them again and return to oven for another 15-30 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked, basting once more while cooking.
