Instructions

Cut chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces.
In a bowl, combine chicken with buttermilk and hot sauce. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
In a separate bowl, combine cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, pepper, and salt.
Remove chicken from buttermilk marinade and dredge in the cornstarch mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken in batches until golden brown and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per batch). Remove and drain on paper towels.
While chicken is frying, prepare the Sauce. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened.
Add fried chicken to the saucepan with the Sauce and toss to coat evenly.
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately with rice and your favorite vegetables.
