Made this for my son . I have used ready made masalas for this. you can follow the below recipe to make it in a similar way.

Ingredients required
----------------------
Boneless chicken 200 gms cut to small pieces
Corn flour -2 tbsp
Chilli powder -1/2 tspn
Ginger-garlic paste- 1/2 tspn each
Salt -as required
chicken masala -1 tspn
lemon juice - juice of half lemon

Deep fry in oil and serve hot. Garnish with fried curry leaves

Honey Glazed Chicken with a difference.. see the recipe for more details

Just tried this out of my own imaginations.. There is some specialty in this honey glazed chicken this is made without frying the chicken pieces and have used very less oil.. Have to say it tasted superb . 

Here goes the recipe.

Marinated chicken with turmeric powder, Red chilli powder, 1/2 spn of coriander powder, ginger garlic paste and kabab masala (hence this reddish colour to the meat) and salt for few minutes

Onion -2 big
capsicum -1/2
garlic- 10 cloves chopped small
coriander leaves for garnishing
Tomato paste -100 gm
tomato sauce- 1 & 1/2 tspn
Honey -2 tspn
Lemon - 1/2 slice

Cook the marinated chicken in 2 cups of water till the meat is properly cooked and dry. In a kadai heat some oil (2 tsbsp) and add cubed onions and garlic .once the raw smell is gone add capsicum. saute for few seconds and then add the cooked chicken pieces to it. Now add tomato paste and saute well. Add tomato sauce. Once the sauce and paste is mixed well with the meat and it is dry add honey and saute. Finally squeeze lemon juice over the top and mix well. I made it very dry got it the same restuarant like taste too.
Tips to enhance its taste never put the lid on in between sauting. also saute well and make it fully dry so that it tastes too good and a bit crispy too.
