  8. Step: Meanwhile, whisk rice vinegar, soy sauce, 1 tsp cornflour, stock, butter, minced garlic, and honey in a jug.
  9. Step: After 15 minutes, turn the chicken pieces.
  10. Step: Pour the sauce around the chicken in the tray.

Notes

You can cook the chicken in an air fryer at 190C/375F for 15-18 minutes, shaking occasionally. The sauce can be heated separately in a saucepan or microwave and poured over the cooked chicken. Making the chicken ahead is not recommended, but the sauce can be prepared a day in advance.
