Chinese Honey Chicken

My baby boy loves chicken. He will stuff his cheeks with it like a squirrel and then chew and chew and chew with his little gums just trying to swallow it all. Then he decides he is thirsty and spits out everything he couldn’t swallow to take a drink. Because he doesn’t want to waste his precious chicken he normally fishes everything he spit out from his lap (where it falls because of the gap between him and his tray) and he continues to eat it. It always makes me laugh when I see his little arms disappear down to his sides and I know he is trying to find some more food to eat. Funny baby.

This is a quick and easy Chinese dish that is sweet and goes perfectly over white rice. The chicken ends up being very moist and practically melts in your  mouth.

Alternatively you can cook this in a crock pot on high for 3 hours or low for 5-6.
Add a drained can of pineapple chunks, sliced onion, mushrooms, and diced bell peppers for a nice Chinese meal!
