Kittencal's Honey Garlic Sauce

Kittencalskitchen's Note:

This sauce may be used with meatballs, ribs, chicken wings anything you desire, and may be doubled if desired but do increase the fresh garlic too much or the garlic flavor will be to strong, the chili flakes are only optional I like to add them in for some heat :)

Fantastic! One night we had it over bbq beef ribs and the next over chicken and broccoli. A little extra soy sauce gives it a nice oriental flavor. Substituted crushed red pepper for paprika and used 4 tbs flour instead of the cornstarch.

My daughter made this tonight for our tofu and veggie stir-fry and it was so delicious. Turned out nice and thick and the flavor was just right. Thanks for posting!

This sauce is absolutely wonderful! I have used it one night for chicken wings for my husband and the following night, I saved the sauce since I had doubled it, and I made it for BBQ chicken breast. It was a hit both times! Excellent! Thank Kittencal for saving my family dinners many times...I have just gotten to putting down my reviews. Thanks again, keep sharing. I look forward to your cookbook.
