Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)

  • 3 tablespoons honey

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon water (to mix with cornstarch, optional for thickening sauce)

  • Green onions, sliced (optional garnish)

Preparation

Step 1

Cut 1 lb of chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Coat lightly with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.


Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and fully cooked.

In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of grated ginger.
