Instructions
Creating Sticky Hoisin Chicken is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil.
2. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat Pan: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a little oil if necessary to prevent sticking.
4. Remove Chicken: Take the marinated chicken out of the refrigerator and discard the marinade.
5. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken to the hot skillet, cooking for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown.
6. Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Once the chicken is cooked, add the reserved marinade to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
7. Thicken Sauce: Stir in the cornstarch slurry, allowing the sauce to thicken for 1-2 minutes.
8. Coat Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, tossing it in the thickened sauce until evenly coated.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
10. Serve: Transfer the Sticky Hoisin Chicken to a serving platter and enjoy!
