Need to use beef here..
Not fully with it when it says add the sweet chilli dipping sauce and other stuff what do you add it two the wok or lemon juice before you cook the chicken?
Add it to the lemon juice and set the whole lot aside
Thank you that’s great going to give this a go.
Mix it all together in a jug to add to the Wok later. This is a really successful dish and easy.

OMG! just made crispy shredded chicken with chilli and honey sauce for dinner, it was absolutely amazing everyone finished it all, followed the recipe gorgeous will definitely make this again!!
Fantastic! Made it but added some garlic to it in the frying process. Absolutely amazing!
Just cooked this for the first-time and omg it’s even better than my regular Chinese. Will be doing this alot!
Hi! I’ve been following your website and trying a few of the recipes. It’s really wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing and I find the whole post interesting. The chicken in this recipe is the best crispy shredded chicken I’ve ever had inside my own house.
Sauce is amazing and so easy thanks 👍
Me and my son just made this rather than order Chinese and OMG he loved it! Added red and green peppers and onions and made egg fried rice and salt and chilli chips 👌🏽❤️ Thanks for the fab recipe!
*it does cost a wee bit to buy all the bits and bobs BUT once u have them u can make it over and over again just need to fresh ingredients!
Also, we had it in wraps with cheese for lunch next day! 10/10
This is a really tasty dish and easy to make from ingredients we’ve all got in the cupboard. Thanks for sharing I’m going to try it with beef next. I added some chilli flakes .
I tried this with cutting to large frying beef steaks up, just as successful as the chicken. Excellent recipe.
