I was craving Chinese food so I made some 😋

I don’t make them too much because I hate how long they take

I bet! But I’m sure they are worth it!

yes they are delicious

Sauce

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup ketchup

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon light brown sugar, packed

3 cloves garlic, pressed or finely minced

2 tablespoons cold water

1 tablespoon cornstarch

Chicken

about 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

3 tablespoons cornstarch

salt and pepper, to taste

3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if necessary

2 green onions, sliced into thin rounds, optional for garnishing

1 tablespoon sesame seeds, optional for garnishing

Make the Sauce

To a medium saucepan, add all ingredients except water and cornstarch, whisk to combine, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

To a small bowl, add the water, cornstarch, and stir to combine.

Add the water and cornstarch mixture to saucepan, reduce heat to low, and allow sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes while you make the chicken; whisk intermittently.

Make the Chicken

To a large ziptop bag, add the chicken, cornstarch, salt and pepper to taste, seal, and shake to coat chicken evenly.

To a large skillet, add 3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until chicken has cooked through. Stir and flip intermittently to ensure even cooking. If skillet seems dry while cooking, add an additional tablespoon or two of oil as necessary.

After chicken has cooked though, reduce heat to low, add the sauce, stir to coat evenly, and allow it to simmer for a minute or two.

Optionally garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and serve immediately.

Thank you!! It looks delicious!
