Method
In a bowl combine the chicken, Chinese cooking wine, soy and corn starch, mix together, leave to marinate for a few minutes.
In another bowl combine the plain flour, baking powder and soda water, whisk together until the mixture mixes into a batter.
Dust the chicken with corn starch then drop into the batter to coat. In batches, carefully place the batter coated chicken pieces into 180deg oil. Cook until lightly golden and crispy. Repeat the process until all the chicken is cooked.
In a bowl combine the honey, chillies, soy and sesame oil, mix together until combined.
When the chicken is fried but still hot pour the honey over and mix together until the chicken is coated in the honey mixture.
Serve chicken straight away on a bed of fried vermicelli noodles.
