### 🍚 **Serving Suggestions**
* **With Steamed Rice** – White or jasmine rice is the perfect base to soak up the sauce.
* **With Stir-Fried Veggies** – Broccoli, snow peas, or bell peppers pair wonderfully.
* **In a Lettuce Wrap** – For a low-carb twist, serve in crisp romaine or iceberg leaves.

### ✅ **Tips for Best Results**
* **Double dredge for extra crunch**: The flour–egg–flour method gives a superior crispy texture.
* **Don’t overcrowd the pan**: Fry in batches to maintain oil temperature and ensure crispiness.
* **Taste the sauce** before combining—add more honey for sweetness or vinegar for tang.
* **Toast the sesame seeds** for a deeper nutty flavor.

### 🥢 **Make It Healthier**
Want to skip the deep-frying? You can:
* **Bake** the chicken at 400°F for 20–25 minutes
* **Air-fry** for a lighter version with the same crunch
* Or **pan-sear** in a small amount of oil
The sauce will still shine—rich, sticky, and delicious.
