Ingredients
5 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, divided
4 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons honey
1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
6 teaspoons canola oil
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grated peeled ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons sugar
3 to 4 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon chili paste
Directions
1. Whisk 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the honey in a bowl. Toss in the chicken and marinate 20 minutes.
2. Remove the chicken from the marinade using a slotted spoon.
3. Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes (add 2 more teaspoons canola oil between batches). Transfer the chicken to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
4. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil in the skillet. Add the scallions. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
5. Whisk the broth, sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, chili paste and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook, stirring, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
6..Return the chicken to the skillet with the sauce and heat through. Serve the chicken and snow peas over brown rice, if desired.
Note: I stir fried some broccoli and added it to the sauce with the chicken.
