Meanwhile add all the orange sauce ingredients listed above in a big bowl/measuring jug. Whisk well. Set aside.
1. In a pan, on medium-high heat, add 2 tbsp oil and in 2-3 batches, shallow fry the marinated chicken chunks. Fry for 2 mins on EACH side to brown/sear the chicken. Remove and allow to drain on a paper towel. Do this process in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Once done, increase heat, add all the seared chicken back to the pan and add 1tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tsp dark soya sauce, some chilli flakes, and handful of spring onions. Salt to taste. Mix and stir for 5 min (uncovered)
1. Reduce heat slightly, add 1/4 cup (50ml water). Stir
Add the orange sauce and mix everything to coat the chicken (see pic!). Let it simmer uncovered for 5 mins or so until sauce reduces and thickens slightly (to your liking).
Drizzle 1tbsp honey all over, stir. Turn off heat.
