Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the sauce ingredients together until the honey is dissolved. Set aside.
- Coat the chicken with cornstarch, then set aside.
- Heat a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil to the pan, then saute the garlic and ginger for a couple of seconds.
- Add the chicken cook until about 90% done. They should have nice browning but still spring back, instead of being firm like when they're fully cooked.
- Pour in the sauce mixture and cook for about 3 - 5 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced to a thick sauce.
- Turn off the heat and finish with sesame oil, sesame seeds, and green onions, if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- Cornstarch: This simple pantry ingredient helps tenderize the chicken in the quick marinade and will also help slightly thicken the sauce.
