Description

A delightful and simple dish combining tender chicken, fragrant garlic and ginger, and a sweet-savory sauce over fluffy white rice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 pound chicken breast, diced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
  2. Add the minced garlic and ginger; sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add the diced chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  4. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, and rice vinegar. Pour this sauce over the chicken and simmer it for another 2-3 minutes, or until thickened.
  5. Serve the chicken over the cooked rice, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding steamed vegetables or a light salad on the side. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
