Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 400°F.
In a large bowl, coat the chicken breast in the smoked paprika, garlic granules, salt, sesame oil and egg. Blend the cornflakes with the smoked paprika and garlic granules, then trainer to a bowl. Dip each piece of chicken in the blended cornflakes, until coated all over, transfer to a lined baking tray, spray all over with the cooking spray, then bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping the chicken once at the halfway point.
Slice the pak choi heads in half lengthways, add the sesame oil, soy sauce and salt, rub it in all over and set aside.
When the chicken is nearly ready, heat a little oil in a non-stick pan, sauté the garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, add the honey, soy sauce, vinegar and sriracha, stir and bring to a simmer, cook the sauce for 2 minutes, add the cornflour, stir again and cook for 2-4 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and thick.
