Ingredients

Servings

Marinade Ingredients:

  • cup honey
  • 1 tbsp ginger minced, fresh
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice fresh
  • 1 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil toasted
  • ½ tsp orange zest
  • ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • orange juice from 1/2 an orange
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat

Other ingredients:

  • salt to taste, sea salt and freshly cracked
  • black pepper to taste, sea salt and freshly cracked
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp water cold
  • sesame seeds toasted
  • green onions sliced

Instructions

  1. Make the marinade by combining the ingredients in a large zip lock bag, seal, and shake well. Add the chicken breasts and toss to coat evenly. Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, turning occasionally.
  2. Remove chicken from the bag, reserving marinade. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
  3. Heat a large skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet, cook for 7-8 minutes, then flip. (I wiped out the pan with a paper towel when I flipped them so the chicken wouldn't burn from the sugar in the marinade.) Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked and the juices run clear.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, strain the marinade through a sieve and discard the solids. Place the marinade into a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook for 3-5 minutes.
  5. Combine the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl; stir with a whisk. Add the cornstarch mixture to the same skillet or small saucepan, stirring with a whisk, and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  6. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes; slice the breasts into thin strips, then drizzle with sauce.
  7. Sprinkle the top with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve with more sauce on the side. Enjoy.
