Sesame Chicken or Pork

This recipe was suppose to be a way to make your "take-out" more healthy. I used thinly sliced pork instead of chicken, but the sauce was so yummy I will for sure make it again with chicken! I served it over brown rice with edamame on the side. It was a huge hit!

5 tablespoons of soy sauce

4 teaspoons of sesame oil

3 teaspoons of honey

1 pound of boneless, chicken breast, cut into chunks

olive oil

3 green onions, sliced

1 tablespoon of grated ginger

5 cloves of minced garlic

1 1/4 cup of chicken broth

3 tablespoons of sugar

1 tablespoon of rice wine vinegar

4 teaspoons of cornstarch

1-3 teaspoons of chili paste, depending on how hot you want it

Marinate the chicken chunks in 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of sesame oil, and the honey. Let it marinate for 30 minutes or so. Remove from the marinade and cook it in a large sauce pan with a coating of olive oil until browned and cooked through...remove from pan.

In the same hot pan add the green onion, garlic, and the ginger...cook for 1 minute.

In a bowl whisk the following together: chicken broth, sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, chili paste, remaining sesame oil, and the remaining soy sauce.

Add the chicken broth mixture and the cooked chicken to the pan...cook until the sauce thickens!
