Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (or more, to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions, for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sriracha, ginger, and garlic.
  5. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce.
  7. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can lightly fry the chicken in a little more oil before adding it to the sauce.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to your preferred spice level.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed rice or noodles.
