Ingredients
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-sized pieces
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, divided
- 2 green onions, chopped
Step By Step Method
- Whisk cornstarch, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl; add chicken and toss to coat.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken in batches, turning occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chile-garlic sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds in a small bowl.
- Pour sauce over chicken in the skillet; toss to coat chicken. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until sauce thickens and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 2 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 2 minutes.
- Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
