Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken with Garlic Butter Noodles

Instructions:
step 1 Cook noodles according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
step 2 Heat oil in a deep pan or skillet for frying.
step 3 Dredge chicken pieces in flour and cornstarch mixture, then dip in beaten eggs, and fry until golden and crispy. Set on a paper towel-lined plate.
step 4 In a saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, and vinegar. Bring to a simmer.
step 5 Stir in cornstarch slurry and cook until sauce thickens to a sticky consistency. Add sesame oil if using.
step 6 Toss the fried chicken in the sauce until well coated.
step 7 In a separate pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add cooked noodles, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
step 8 Serve sticky honey garlic chicken alongside garlic butter noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Storage and Reheating Tips:
Store chicken and noodles separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat chicken in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness. Noodles can be reheated in a skillet with a splash of water or butter to revive texture.
