This dish is a hit at our house. It turns out a little salty, a little sweet, a little sour and is a taste explosion for your senses. Makes a perfect meal after a long week.
For the sauce:
1/3 c. soy sauce
1 ½ T. rice wine vinegar
1 ½ tsp. honey
1 ½ tsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. sesame oil
½ tsp. ground ginger
½ tsp. minced garlic
For the chicken:
1 lb. chicken, cut into 1” pieces (I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts)
1 T. vegetable oil
½ tsp. pepper
You will also need:
2 c. cooked long grain rice,
1 c. broccoli, chopped
½ c. carrots, chopped
½ c. peas
½ c. red peppers, sliced
In a medium bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients until well blended. Set aside.
In a large, deep skillet, heat up the oil for the chicken over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add in the chicken and season it with the pepper and cook until the chicken is almost done and is golden brown. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Now, take the sauce that you made and pour it over the chicken. Turn the heat to low-medium and simmer it until the sauce has thickened a bit and then stir in the peas, carrots, red peppers and broccoli and allow it all to heat up.
Serve over the cooked rice with a side of homemade egg rolls.
