New Delhi: Honey Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry is a dish in which tender chicken, is coated in sweet, savoury, ginger sauce. Serve it with rice and steamed broccoli for a meal that’s worthy of the regular dinner rotation.
Ingredients
For the Sesame Sauce:
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Ginger, very finely diced (see note)
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- ¼ cup Honey
- ⅓ cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
- 3 Tablespoons Ketchup
- 2 teaspoons Toasted Sesame Oil
- 1 teaspoon White Sesame Seeds, plus more for topping
- For the Stir-Fry:
- 1 ½ pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast
- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- 3 Tablespoons Cooking Oil
- 2 stalks of Green Onions, chopped, plus more for topping
Instructions
- Make a sauce by whisking together garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
- Toss chicken with cornstarch until evenly coated.
- In a wok or large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and let cook for a moment without stirring until browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Give the chicken a stir and pour in about 3 tablespoons of sauce (it doesn’t have to be super precise, so you can just estimate it by tipping in about a quarter of the sauce). Cook chicken in sauce, stirring frequently until chicken is well coated and looks sticky with sauce.
- Pour in the remaining sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce reduces slightly and chicken is cooked, 4 to 5 minutes more.
- Stir in the 2 stalks of green onions.
- Serve chicken over rice with some more sesame seeds and green onions on top.
