Ingredients
- 4 large chicken breasts skinless
- 1/2 cup soy sauce low sodium
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 5 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tablespoons corn starch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a small bowl combine soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic and chili flakes.
- Place chicken in a 9" x 13" baking pan and pour sauce on top. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink.
- Remove cooked chicken from pan and shred with two forks. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water making a slurry. Set aside.
- Put the liquid from the chicken in a small saucepan and bring to a slight boil over medium-high heat. Add cornstarch mixture and stir until thickened. Pour sauce over shredded chicken and mix until all pieces are coated with the sauce.
- Serve with rice and additional toppings (sesame seeds, chopped greed onions or cilantro).
Notes
- Ways to Shred Chicken
- Chicken breasts are easiest to shred. I don't recommend using skin-on and bone in chicken.
- Another way to shred the chicken is with your hands. Simply pull apart the chicken piece by piece.
- Use a hand mixer. Place the chicken in a deep bowl and place the mixer over the chicken and turn on. It'll take just a minute to shred the chicken. This method also works using a stand mixer with the dough paddle.
