Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
2 tablespoons rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional, for heat)
Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish

Instructions

In a bowl, toss chicken pieces with cornstarch until evenly coated.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Whisk together honey, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes in a small bowl. Pour the mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve warm over rice or noodles.
