31. Honey Sesame Chicken Lunch
Honey Sesame Chicken Lunch is a practical addition to this collection, with a straightforward method and adaptable serving options.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lb (700 g) boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tbsp cornstarch (for coating)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil (or other neutral oil)
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) honey
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp brown sugar (optional, for deeper sweetness)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) water or low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water (slurry)
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Cooked rice or noodles for serving (about 4 cups cooked)
Instructions
- 1. Prepare ingredients: cut the chicken into bite-size pieces, mince garlic, grate ginger, slice green onions, and measure all liquids and cornstarch. Cook rice or noodles according to package directions so they are ready when the chicken is done.
- 2. Toss the chicken pieces with 2 tbsp cornstarch in a bowl until evenly coated; shake off any excess cornstarch.
- 3. Heat a large skillet or nonstick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tbsp vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, add the coated chicken in a single layer (work in batches if needed) and cook 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F / 74°C). Remove cooked chicken to a plate and keep warm.
- 4. Reduce heat to medium. In the same pan, add a splash more oil if it’s dry, then add the minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté 30–45 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
- 5. Add honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar (if using), and 1/4 cup water or broth to the pan. Stir to combine and bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
- 6. Stir the cornstarch slurry (2 tsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp cold water) to recombine, then whisk it into the simmering sauce. Cook 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens to a glossy consistency.
- 7. Return the cooked chicken to the pan and toss in the sauce to coat evenly, cooking 1–2 minutes more so the chicken is reheated and the sauce clings to each piece. Taste and adjust: add a pinch of salt, a splash of soy sauce, or a little extra vinegar if you want more acidity.
- 8. Turn off the heat and stir in half the sesame seeds and most of the sliced green onions, reserving some for garnish. If you like heat, sprinkle in the crushed red pepper flakes to taste.
- 9. Serve the honey sesame chicken over cooked rice or noodles, and finish with the remaining sesame seeds and green onions on top.
