Description
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup flour (for coating)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- Sesame seeds and sliced green onions, for garnish
Ingredients
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then toss them in flour to coat lightly.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
- In the same pan, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Bring to a simmer and let the sauce thicken slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the pan and toss to coat evenly with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the chicken is well coated and heated through.
- Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
Notes:
- For a gluten-free version, use cornstarch instead of flour for coating and tamari in place of soy sauce.
- Adjust the honey and soy sauce ratios to suit your taste preference for sweetness or saltiness.
- The recipe can also be adapted to use chicken breasts if preferred, though cooking times may vary.
