Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 Tbsp Fresh Ginger, very finely diced ((see note))
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Honey
1/3 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce ((sub Tamari for a gluten-free version))
3 Tbsp Ketchup
2 tsp Toasted Sesame Oil
1 tsp White Sesame Seeds, plus more for topping
1 1/2 lbs Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast
2 Tbsp Cornstarch
3 Tbsp Cooking Oil, divided
2 stalks Green Onions, chopped, plus more for topping

Steps:

  • Make sauce by whisking together garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
  • Toss chicken with cornstarch until evenly coated.
  • In a wok or large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and let cook for a moment without stirring until browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Give the chicken a stir and pour in about 3 Tbsp of sauce (it doesn't have to be super precise, so you can just estimate it by tipping in about a quarter of the sauce). Cook chicken in sauce, stirring frequently until chicken is well coated and looks sticky with sauce.
  • Pour in the remaining sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce reduces slightly and chicken is cooked, 4 to 5 minutes more.
  • Stir in the 2 stalks of green onions.
  • Serve chicken over rice with some more sesame seeds and green onions on top.

When I was first married, we didn't have a working oven or grill, so I had to use the stovetop for everything. After a few months of the same thing, I needed some new ideas and developed this simple chicken stir-fry. I make half of it when we're home alone and can easily double it for company. -April Walcher, Hutchinson, Kansas

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are good choices for this dish. You can also use chicken tenders or strips.
  • Slice the chicken thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use fresh ginger and garlic: These ingredients add a lot of flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh ginger or garlic, you can use ground ginger or garlic powder, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat: This will help it brown quickly and evenly.
  • Stir-fry the chicken until it is cooked through: The chicken should be cooked through but still tender and juicy. If you overcook the chicken, it will become tough and dry.
  • Add the honey and ginger sauce: Stir-fry the chicken in the honey and ginger sauce until it is evenly coated.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fried chicken with honey and ginger is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried chicken with honey and ginger is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a healthy dish, as it is made with lean protein and fresh vegetables. The honey and ginger sauce adds a delicious sweet and savory flavor to the chicken. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
