Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 Tbsp packed light brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil (optional)
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 3 tsp cornstarch
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish
  • Rice, for serving
  • Steamed vegetables, for serving
Instructions
  1. Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the cubed chicken and cook until the pieces are browned and no longer pink in the center.
  3. While the chicken cooks, whisk together the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and cornstarch in a medium bowl to create the sauce.
  4. Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet once the chicken is cooked through. Stir and continue heating until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
  5. Serve the chicken immediately over white or brown rice with your favorite steamed vegetables. Finish with sesame seeds and green onions on top.
