1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) or heat 2 tbsp of oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Cook the chicken in the air fryer or skillet for 5-6 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
4. While the chicken cooks, mix the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
5. Once the chicken is done, brush the sticky sesame glaze all over the pieces and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet, savory, and addictive flavors!
Meal-Prep Storage & Crispy Air-Fryer Reheating Guide
• Cool Before Sealing: Let cooked portions cool for 10 minutes before sealing in glass containers so steam never softens the crust (keeps 4 days in the fridge).
• Sauce on the Side: Store dips, drizzles, and fresh herbs separately until right before serving.
• 3-Minute Crispy Reheat: Reheat in a 380°F (193°C) air fryer or dry cast-iron skillet for 3–4 minutes to restore shatteringly crisp edges.
