Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. This will help thicken the sauce later on.

  3. In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the marinated chicken pieces (reserving the marinade for later use). Cook the chicken until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.

  4. Lower the heat and pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Stir in the cornstarch slurry. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes. The sauce should coat the chicken nicely.

  5. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the chicken and stir to combine, allowing the seeds to toast slightly for added flavor.

  6. Remove the skillet from heat, and garnish the Sesame Chicken UK with sliced green onions for a pop of color and freshness.

  7. Serve the Sesame Chicken UK hot over steamed rice, allowing the flavorful sauce to seep into the rice for a truly delicious meal.
