Sesame Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (~4 thighs, or sub 2 breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces)
• salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp oil
• 2 cloves garlic (crushed)
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
• 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

1. 1

   Season the chicken with salt and freshly ground pepper, then toss with 1 tablespoon cornstarch.

2. 2

   Heat up oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook the chicken in a single layer, until cooked through, golden brown, and crispy, flipping once. Cook in batches, if needed.

3. 3

   Push the chicken to one side, then add the garlic to the pan and cook until soft, but not brown.

4. 4

   Add soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sauce turns slightly thick and glossy and coats the chicken. Finish with toasted sesame seeds and enjoy hot!
