A delightful twist on a classic sesame chicken recipe, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
For a deeper flavor, let the marinade sit for a few minutes before using.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place them in a separate bowl.
Ensure uniform sizes for even cooking.
In another bowl, whisk the egg whites and cornstarch to form a coating mixture.
The mixture should be smooth and lump-free for even coating.
Dip the chicken pieces into the coating mixture, ensuring they are fully covered.
Shake off excess coating to prevent clumping during cooking.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil.
Use a non-stick skillet to reduce the amount of oil needed.
Cook the coated chicken pieces in the skillet until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Pour the marinade over the cooked chicken in the skillet and toss to coat evenly.
Let the sauce simmer slightly to thicken and coat the chicken well.
Transfer the chicken to a serving plate and garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
